Mrs Telea's Birthday

Slowly walking into the street with our chromebooks no one know’s what’s happening. Music starts to play, Samoan music. As all the boys jumped up from the seats and started to create a circle around miss Tele’a as Today is Mrs’s Tealea’s Birthday. For her Birthday she wanted us to dance Samoan Around her so she was the spotlight.

Everybody came rushing into the street to see what was happening, and everyone saw us dancing around Mrs Tele’a it wasn’t long until people came out with IPADs recording. We spent around 5:00 minutes dancing around Mrs Tele'a and then everything went back to normal. I enjoyed having a little fun during literacy.

Polyfest

Yesterday team 5 (Year 7 & 8) went to Polyfest. Polyfest is a big deal, you get to go and compete well only college schools.

So as we were waiting for the bus we talked about the rules and we would be in groups with parents and teachers. After a while the bus came and all of us slowly went on to 2 bus’s.

We arrived at Manakau, the place of polyfest and as we got outside the gate we didn’t see the other group. So we were waiting outside until we were told that they were inside the whole time. We went inside sat down with the other school’s.

We went to activity’s so first our group checked out the fire safety and they show us ways to keep the fire from the pot calm by putting a chopping board over it or a wet cloth but not a to wet cloth and he also showed us what will happen when you put water in a burning pot. And as questions were answered right you got a prize a drink bottle or a shirt. Thanks New Zealand Fire Safety.

Flava was also at polyfest we played a game with them and we took a photo. And a chance to win a free bicycle and it was cool. And check out flava, Flava is a radio station 95.8.
