Who is Masima?
November 13, 2026. Friday. Zepplin Corr.
Masima is the name to a peacefully calm lamb who is five weeks old born on a massive and spacious farm owned by Nicole’s family, the family of one of our release teachers Nicole.
She is a little curious baby ewe who is frequently loud but also quiet when she’s calm. When hungry, she is rough and charges at students head on and her diet usually consist of fresh grass and a bottle of milk probably. Her characteristics include a blue cat collar around between her scrag’s end and middle neck and she wears a light blue baby nappy maybe to avoid her pooping when shes in public areas.
She has fluffly white fleece all around her body, her eyes are rectangular meaning she can look 120 degrees around and behind her in order to detect either threats, movement or anything even behind her and she has four stomachs all fitted for a different purpose in consumption of her diet. And can remember up to fifty different sheep and human faces for two years, basically Nicole is in her memory for as long as she lives because she is always around Nicole.
Masima also identifies as Samoan, Niuean, Tongan and Maori despite being born without a culture, its just to humanize her and her name means salt. Masima is gentle, soft and quiet when she isn’t rowdy or hungry and loves Papakura High School because of its large open areas and plain fields instead of Edmund Hillary School’s more cramped spaces and really excited crowding juniors and even seniors.
Masima was born to a mother sheep who actually left her on birth and I do not know who or where the father sheep is but Masima’s past is tragic but luckily she is taken care of by Nicole and her family and Masima really loves her bath times and getting her fleece blow-dried and shes the center of attention in EHS, primarily from jokes by students that they’re going to eat her and how parents look at Masima while walking by. When Nicole is asked whether they’re going to eat her, she responds with a no because Masima is explicitly a innocent playful pet rather than dinner for tonight but her mother might be dinner tonight.
Masima is also extremely fast when running on the field and she gets easily annoyed when people crowd her, yell or just speak loudly which is mostly the junior’s classes and Masima prefers quieter and calmer areas like Room 9. According to Nicole, Room 9 is Masima’s favourite class because it is quiet (sometimes), not chaotic and crowding.
Masima is (was) currently in Edmund Hillary School as I am writing this now, she wanders around most of her times, cries and headbutts students when hungry. This is her final day of a week’s stay at EHS and it is a honor for Masima’s preference for our class.
Thank you for reading this short blog all about Masima, it was supposed to be a quick, short and interesting fact writing about the curious and meek lamb.
Haere rā!
