Two Amazing Kiwi Can Leaders

Kia ora, Bloggers

Kia ora bloggers!

I really enjoy Kiwi Can because of our awesome leaders. They always support and guide us, helping students learn important values like respect, resilience, and teamwork. Every session is full of fun, active  and positive energy that encourages us to do our best.

What is your favorite activity or lesson from Kiwi Can?

Recently, our learning topic focused on the country of Niue.

Here are some interesting facts about Niue:

1. Niue (pronounced Nee-oo-eh) is a tiny, wonderful island nation in the South Pacific Ocean. It is often called “The Rock” or the “Rock of Polynesia” because it is one of the largest raised coral atolls in the world.

In Room 9, we discussed how respect means making good choices. Making good choices is all about deciding to do what is right, even when no one is watching.

Fakaalofa lahi atu,

This morning, we’ve talked about how in the past week we’ve been acting off and odd. so we’re asked to give into groups with 3-5 people and write down on paper what will help us get motivated.

From my learning intent and on the paper, I wrote down for motivation as: ( below ) . These are my own

• Competing with others happily and safely
• Being able to be yourself
• People being able to help you stand out ( encouraging and cheering )

And I made one for Whaea Lorraine for fun and had no other choice, of course  I wrote down some for her.

Motivation for Whaea Lorraine:

• Give her chocolate or coffee
• Match her energy
• Give her motivation back

My feedback on this, everything that I’ve thought of and wrote down is pretty much my ideas and I found it pretty casual. Though some shared their own much like sports, cooking, and bringing everyone up. I would do this again!

Malo e lelei readers,

Our teacher Nicole has a lamb named Masima.

She has a sad story to her life. But she seem to be looking up.

Nicole wanted us to write about her and she shared us slides about her.

Here is my writing about her:

Have you ever seen a lamb before?

Last, week, we had our last day for swimming pool lessons. before we got there we took off our bags and put them on the bench so after  swimming I could go to the males bathroom to change my wet clothes and put my dry clothes on . It’s not just swimming,it’s swimming pool lessons It means an instructor will say your name ,like for example saying the names of our classes , room 1 and room 2. so after we got settled  down on the floor and getting ready to get called out by the instructor . After a while  i got called out  by the instructor I was happy because my friends called out as well we did  some floating on the deep side of the water and  we  were jumping doing from the bombing platform, at first i was so scared because it was 5 meters down the floor,then  took the deepest breathe ever then i jumped and i managed to do a manu,it means jumping down from the bombing plat form and make a really big splash . after we completed all of the sessions , then we got out of the pool  and got my bag from the bench  and walked straight to the males bathroom  and started changing putting my wet clothes in the plastic bag  and put on my school uniform. After  changing i went outside for some fresh air and i started waiting for room 1 and room 2.

Task Description: This week Friday a lamb visited our class  room. The lamb’s name is Masima, Masima is a girl lamb which is known as an ewe. This morning I have watched and learned more about her body and have done a Canva presentation which was shared to me by the teacher – Nicole which is also the owner of Masima.

I have had the privilege of being in the same class of the lamb because Nicole was substituting for our class. One of my favourite facts which I have learned about her is that her name means salt and that she has 4 stomachs to digest her food.  The presentation which I will insert below has features and information on the lamb and a quiz of would you rather.

but when she is big for me

Hi! Bloggers

This week in math we have been learning about Division and multiplication. We also have been learning how to make a bus stop for our math. We had a lot of hard work to finish, my teacher said if you don’t know your multiplication then how will you know your division because division is all about multiplication.

Malo e leilei,

The year 5’s have been doing Hearts, we had to write about twelve into our list of our favourite things like Traditions, passions all kinds of those stuff into our hearts.  When we were finished we  would go to word art.com.

I enjoyed decorating my Heart.

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!

yesterday we had to do a slide about No rhymes and it was on a drawing and we had to add photos like a dragonfly and a tree and here is the work .

Kia Ora Everyone,

Today room 9 has been learning about motivation. Motivation means something or someone that gives you a purpose or a reason to keep going. My motivation is getting prizes when I have a lot of blogs/DLO. That includes learning intention, evidence for your work, thoughts of your work and having a lot of information about your work or activity. My next motivation is my friends, my friends are my motivation because they help me when I am stuck with my work or activity. They show me where to when I am stuck as well. My friends motivate me by keeping me moving even when it is hard. My friends are Ane, Neveah, Marion, Berit and

Questions: who or what is your motivation? 

Namaste Kia ora.

Last week was our last time at Massey park pools doing swimming and water safety.

I have gotten better at  jumping in the pool safer and staying the longest up. and also floating on my back..

I want to practice more of. swimming faster and learning how to do a hand stand under water

I enjoyed watching the students learn how to be safe and still help rescue their mates. This was very evident in the final task when

they had to jump in from high wall in to the deep section. Float on their back to then reach out to be rescued  by their group.

Perimeter is the total distance or length all the way around the outside boundary of a 2D shape. The total distance around the outside boundary of a two-dimensional shape, measured in linear units like centimeters and meters or feet. Length is a one-dimensional measure of distance, such as the size of a single side or line. When I was doing it, it was pretty hard but I got the hang of it. Learning about perimeter and length is not always easy some numbers can confuse you and sometimes you can’t tell the difference of 2d shapes and 3d shapes. here is what perimeter and length looks like.

Good morning Everyone,

Today, Nicole came with her lamb, Nicole’s lamb’s name was Masima. Masima is a Samoan name, and in English it is called salt. I would describe her as cute, little and soft. Masima is very calm and I heard she is very fast. Did you know that a lamb/sheep had four stomachs. Masima is a girl. She cries when she is uncomfortable, when she is hungry or when she is hurt and others. She eats grass and milk bottles. Masima is also gentle and quiet.

Talofa lava Bloggers and readers, :]

Last week on Friday was the last week of our swimming lessons, it was the fourth practice lesson.

The first rotation we had was swimming from one end of the pool to the other end on our stomach though and if you ran out of breath then you could turn over on our backs and take a breath then go back to your stomach, We were not allowed to touch the bottom of the pool!

The second rotation we did was where we all stood in one long line on the edge of the pool (not the shallow end and not the deep end we were jumping off the pool near the slide and hot tub.) I was third in line so I had to wait for 2 people to go. I got scared when it was my turn so I just let someone else go in front of me and then it was my turn, when it was my turn we had to just step out into the cold water once our legs hit the water we had to bend our legs like a cannonball then when our heads got out of the water we had to swim on our back and complete a obstacle course where we swam from hoops, caught toys at the bottom, Even my googles fell off so then I swam to the bottom to get my googles.

The third rotation we had is where our group split up some of the group had noodles to rescue people that jumped off the high wall thingy. (I was in the rescue team) so I had a teal noodle pole and swung it out into the deep end so the jumper could swim on their back and grab the noodle I rescued Marion! Then it was my turn to jump  .·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·. BUT I was too scared ｡:ﾟ(;´∩`;)ﾟ:｡ so I climbed down the ladder again and swam on my back. all the way back to the shallow end. (maybe next year I’ll jump when I feel more brave ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭ ) .

Things I learned to do along the way:

•  turn over on my back and stomach.
•  scull through the water.
•  to swim.
• to doggy Paddle.
•  properly jump in the pool properly (like a pencil)
•  swim on my back.
• to float.

Bye bye
