Beach day :))

Bula Vinaka Bloggers!

Yesterday me and my mum went to the beach! It was so fun and it was so sunny, it was actually a decent weather to go to the beach. We went to mission bay, on the more quiet side, the one more closer to Kelly tartan.

We brought a surfboard. I tried to surf but I kind of just ended up falling- Me and my mum floated around and it was so funny. We were joking around and pretending to call eachother names, my name was Nancy and my mums name was Malinda. Ma if your watching this remember how you were acting like a total Belinda (inside joke for people who don’t know). It became kind of cloudy and I thought it was going to rain but I didn’t.

A little bit later we took a food break 🙂 We ate some fried prawns and my mum ate something like battered prawns.  I also ate a bit of seaweed it was sooo good. I almost finished all of my food.

We stayed in the water for nearly 4 whole hours!! After I changed I ate some more food when we went back in the car, from there we went to Mcdonalds! It was a really fancy Mcdonalds, it looked like it was 3 stories tall! After Mcdonalds we went to Stardome and parked around there to eat. After all that we went back home.

It was a really fun day!

Natures rubbings – step up

Bula Vinaka bloggers!

This activity is the step up to my last SLJ activity. The step up was all about abstract art. Abstract art is different than other types of art. Abstract art is different and is really unique. It’s usually lots of different colours, or unique colour mixes in other patterns. The patterns should be unique. I tried my hardest to make my art unique and to make the patterns unique. The colours I chose were Red, Orange and black. My pattern is kind of like plaid but a bit different I guess. Anyway I hope you like  my work 🙂

Kōwhai Drawing – Kick Start

Today for the SLJ I did Kōwhai Drawing – Kick Start. It was really fun drawing this type of flower and knowing some facts about Kōwhai’s! Here are some facts that I’ve learnt about Kowhai’s.

Fact 1: Kowhai’s are best known for their brilliant yellow flowers that appear in profusion in Spring and stand out among the forest greenery.

Fact 2: Trees of this Kowhai’s are long lived with one proven to be 460 years old and others thought to be up to 1800 years old.

Fact 3:  The bark of the kowhai tree can be used in a bath to help with bruising and has long been used by Māori to help with broken bones as well as itching, shingles, and dandruff.

Thank you very much Michelle Tate for making this task I’ve really enjoyed it!

Summer Learning Journey | Summer KiriKiti (Cricket)


I completed the kick start activity of Summer Kirikiti which is english. For this task, I watched a video on different cricket celebrations and recorded my self doing one of them. The reasons why people and spectators would love cricket celebrations is because the players express their achievement of getting a player out or catching the ball, it also gives entertainment to the people and gives them a little laugh about it or get inspiration to use it.

I found this activity interesting because I got to see and act out different cricket celebrations.

Long Place Name

Kia Ora. This SLJ activity is called Long Place Name. For this activity we have to explore some long place names and fill the information into a slide. one of the things I learned from this activity was that the longest place name is called “Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu” and it’s from Hawkes Bay in New Zealand, it translate into”The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the slider, climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his kōauau to his loved one.”

After that we have to list out 4 places that we want to go to, my first one is Fujian(a city in China) because that is my hometown and I miss my family and friends so much(PS; this dream is going to become true this year).

The second place I want to go to is Beijing(capital of China) It has lots of things that I want to explore like the great wall, The Palace Museum, Tienanmen square…

My third place that I want to go to is Russia because I thought Russia was cool and I wanted to have a look at the famous building”st. basil’s cathedral.” The fourth place I want to go is Hawaii because that’s a good place for holidays and relaxing.

 

What’s your dream place to go?

Here is my slide:
