Marae Trip!

Marae Trip

Kapa Haka

Last week our school went to Te Poho o Rawiri for our stay at the marae. I came late because I had just came back from my holiday so I wasn't there for the activities on Thursday. When I arrived my friends ran up to me and showed me where to put my bags. Soon after we went down to the courts to play handball. After a couple of games of handball the bell rang for dinner. I sat down at a table with my friends and we ate nachos for dinner.

After we had ate we set up our beds and then we performed our Kapa haka for the adults that had come to watch. We then got ready for bed. Sophie and I hopped into bed and talked for so long. We finally tried to get some sleep but somebody was snoring like CRAZY so we didn't have the best sleep.

The next morning we got up, packed up, and changed into our clothes. The teachers made us run for a bit, but luckily they let us play games afterwards. We had breakfast then welcomed the Wai in with a powhiri. Overall I enjoyed the Marae trip because It was a fun two days for everyone.

Learning new sentences!

For the past two weeks in my level three writing group we have been learning to write new types of sentences. They include a main clause, a dependent clause and a subordinate clause. In one workshop we wrote five sentences including those things. We wrote them about our characters from Escape from Kraznir. This week we had three options to choose from. All of the options were creatures also from Escape from Kraznir. On this blog post I am going to be sharing my sentences about the creature I chose.
