Step It Up – The Manu Splash
The summer learning journey step it up activity! This activity tasked my classmates and I to make a animation, drawing etc of a manu I watched a video on how to do a manu. First you knee down on what what ever platform you are on, Then you stand up straight but also leaning forward and dont jump, After that you want to tuck into a V shape with your body and when you hit the water tight tuck, Then push back.
I enjoyed this task because I learnt how to do a manu because of these videos, I think I did well in making the animation. I think I did well at making the splash. I need to improve on more detail.
Kick Start – The Manu Splash
For this kick start activity we are tasked of making a google drawing with curves making it seem like a manu splash. First I watched videos of how to make my manu splash: I first searched the sea once I had the image I inserted the picture, Then I inserted shapes and curved them to make it look like a manu splash! I also used the fill tool to colour in the curved shaped splashes.
I enjoyed making this because I learnt how to make custom manu splashes in a Google Drawing. I think I need to improve on using more details, I think I did good at making the little drops when the splash is coming down.

Soundtrack of my Life
Poetry
In the corner of my room, my pleasant and mellow bed awaits,
A place of refuge where tranquillity dictates.
Where velvety pillows and linens meet in a tender cuddle
This place is mine, the place I never struggle
Wrapped in a quilt, the problems stray away,
Floating through dreams, wishing to stay.
In this hospitable withdrawal, everything is right
Finding amenities in the quietness of the night

What does home mean to me?
To me, home is something that makes you feel like you are safe. Safe enough to do absolutely anything you want, and be vulnerable as you want.
Social Studies || Tūrangawaewae
Hello everyone, Today I’ll be answering two questions about Social Studies. The topic for today is Tūrangawaewae, a place to stand where you feel like you belong and feel connected. Tūrangawaewae is where you feel comfortable, safe, and proud of where you stand.
Where do you feel you belong?
My home is my safe space. It’s filled with the people I love, the people I feel safe with, and the people I feel like I can show my true colours. My house envelopes me in a safe and comfortable space. Honestly, I don’t think it’s the house, it’s the people I am surrounded with.
