UNIQUE CELEBRATIONS

The topic that I chose was Unique Celebrations I am going to share how me and my family celebrate New years as a Samoan and Tokelau family.


First we all get ready for our annual New year's get together where my mums side and my dad's side meet and have talks about how life is going and how we are thankful for the things we have. Then we usually all go and swim in the pool that we all got for Christmas, it's pretty big so the max in the pool is about 13 or 14 people but we take turns going in and out every 20 minutes.


Then after we all finish swimming one by one we all have showers while the boys do the barbecue. They usually do sausages, pattys, and chicken pieces. After all the kids have been showered we all stay inside and watch TV until the food is ready. When the food is ready and has cooled down a bit more the older kids feed the little kids and then me and the older kids eat.


After all the eating is done then we all run and play outside. We play games like tag, rugby, and sometimes we go to the park just down the road and play there for about 30 minutes.


Usually after we play for a while we get ready to go to church. All of us get into our church clothes, do our hair put on our shoes then we all squeeze into two vans then we go to church. At church we thank the lord for all his blessings and all the amazing things that we have in life. While the church is waiting for 12:00am we play fun and exciting games like charades, hide and seek, and we also get to eat again.

When the clock strikes 12:00am we all write down our new year's resolutions (in Samoan) and then present it to the whole church. The order is always a little kid older kid than a parent. Then we have a sleepover a t the church and then the next day we go back home.


So that is how me and my Family celebrate New years as a Samoan and Tokelauan family. I hope you enjoyed learning about how my family and I celebrate New years.

LETTER TO MRS TAPUKE

Dear Ms Tapuke, 

My name is Jane and I am now in year 7 at Pt england school. I have one older brother and one older sister then I have my one younger brother. My mum is from Tokelau and my dad is from Samoa. Most of my Family were born and raised in Samoa and most of my grandparents were born in Tokelau. My brothers and my sister were all born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand. 

My hobbies are playing sports such as Cricket, Tag, Touch, Netball, and many more. I also love going out with my friends. Their names are Maddison, Oalii, Norah-jade, Sivaenah, and Nina. I also love playing games and hanging out with my pets. I have two cats and a few more strays, two turtles, two fish, and one dog. 

My favorite subject at school is writing because I get to explain stuff in my own way. Also because I like being creative when I write and can make stories up or tell real stories that have happened to me.

I hope you have learnt a bit more about me.

Yours sincerely, Jane. 

Stetting Description

Walt:  Write a detailed account. 




Task description: So first we got given this task and we had to write a detailed and year 6 way to describe the pictures. The first picture that I decided to do was the candy house I think that was my favourite one to do. The second one that I did was the haunted house that was my second favourite. Last but not lease is the castle on the water. I kind of didn't like that one but I did at the same time because it was difficult to find a story that would fit it properly but it challenged me as well. 

Fake Recount

Walt: write a detailed account.

Let me tell you a story of the time I fell asleep at the airport and when I woke up I was in Melbourne. If you want to hear the rest of my paragraphs to see what happens.

So when I went to the airport the plane took so long that I accidentally fell asleep. It felt like I fell asleep for a very long time because when I woke up it was dark and I couldn’t move it felt like I was in a tight dark room. Well that is what I thought.


I soon realised that I was in a suitcase. I couldn't believe it, I was pretty sure it was my evil cousin called Rose. She always does mean stuff to me and I always get the blame.


After a while I started hearing some strange noises. It felt like the noise were getting closer and closer. When the noise finally stopped I felt like I could finally relax. Until I felt a big thump. I was thinking that we had landed and it was right

When I finally escaped the suitcase I found out by asking some people I was in Melbourne which is in Australia. I was furious with my cousin I called her and found out my parents thought that I ran away.

See what I mean I always get the blame for everything my cousin does. When I caught the earliest plane back to Auckland. I got grounded right on the day I came back.

I felt really uncomfortable but I kind of had a good time because I got to visit a different country for the first time and also got to go to visit my aunt's and uncle that lived here.

Recount 2

My earliest memory was about five weeks ago when my mum and I went to pick up my cousin Sivaenah to hang out for the day.

The first thing my Mum and I did before we went to pick up Sivaenah was get ready. We had a shower, brushed our teeth, and then had breakfast.

After a while me and my Mum finished getting ready and we went to pick up Sivaenah. Not long after that we arrived at Sivaenah house and my Mum and I went inside and she was already ready so we went inside my house.

After sometime we all went inside the car again and went to the pools. When we got into the pools it was so warm and we saw some of our friends from school. After we had a little swim then we went back home to watch a movie and relax.

That was one of the best days I have ever had I hope that I can do something like that again.  

That Really Stinks (Story Starter)

One week ago there was a boy named Sam. He stole his sisters phone because he found an app that he thought was so funny and amazing. It was an app that made farting sounds. Soon after stealing his sisters phone, he went to the toilet and pretended like he was going to the toilet. Little did he know that someone was watching him. It was the big scary one eyed monster. As soon as the monster got the phone the monster rushed down the toilet and went back to his hideout. Not long after that Sam made the decision to go down the toilet and get the phone back or his sister would kill him. When he went down the sticky, gross toilet he found himself in the sewers so he called one of the big bumpy crocodile. He went to the monster’s super secret hideout. When Sam finally got over the horrible smell he hid behind a rock in the super secret hideout and Sam bravely came out from behind the rock and saw something strange he saw all the monsters coming into a circle and laughing at the fart noises so Sam made a fart noise with his mouth and they all started laughing. As soon as they all finished laughing the monster gave the phone back and Sam. Then Sam said sorry to his sister for taking her phone and he said that he would never do it again.

On the last day of my trip to Australia my two auntys and my baby cousin had a really big surprise for me. I was a little bit nervous but in the end I felt sad that the day was over.

The whole day I was thinking of what the surprise was. I was so nervous but excited at the same time. After sometime, my family and I decided to bake a cake. The messiest bit of making the cake was the flour and eggs. Not long after that, we ate the cake and then we went to get ready for my big surprise. While we were driving we had to go and get some gas but we almost didn’t make it. Finally we got to my surprise and I found out that it was a zoo, but not just any zoo. It was a zoo where you go into a big van or bus and you get to see the animals up close. I had a really good experience with the animals when I grow up I want to work at the zoo or be a vet.

Mission Recount

Walt: Structure a recount correctly  


Today when I woke up I did not expect this to happen. Our crazy teacher took us on a secret mission on the field and we had to act like soldiers. 

First our class got told that we had to go outside and that we were going to have to do different training exercises. Then he started telling us left right and then we all started to march. I was really confused at first but then it became really funny.


So the second thing that he wanted us to do was the sneaking training, we had to sneak past some classes without being seen. It was really hard especially when we all either had to crawl or bend down really low. Also while I was walking I fell and it was really hard to get up because there were a lot of people.


Finally it was the third and final part of our training. We had to do exercise like push ups, sit ups, and we had to balance on one leg. When we were doing push ups I only did one I hope I got away with it.

Task description: So first we went out and did all these really fun and cool things with our teacher and then we had to do a descriptive recount about it.

Sheep POV

What was that strange creature that I saw?. It had blond hair and weird glasses. I didn’t like how close it was to my baby lamb so I ran and protected my baby. That creature can’t hurt my baby because I was protecting it. Lucky that weird looking lady didn’t get to my lamb.



I had to write about what the sheep saw. I think that the sheep was seeing something that it was not use to so it picked up it's pace to try and scare Miss West.

Planning and Writing Doc.

The mother sheep followed me along the path picking up her past as she realized that I was within touching distance of her lamb. She let out a loud low bleat which echoed across the paddock. The sleeping lamb lifted it’s head and turned towards us before slowly returning to it’s sleep. As the sheep got closer and closer I thought about whether I should turn and run I began to panic was she going to attack me. Holding my breath I froze I sighed as the sheep dogged me and ran protectively towards it's  lamb Few That was a close call.

Peephole Narrative

Once upon a time there were four very nice girls and they were all very happy. One nice sunny morning all the 4 girls went out to play and they had a great time for the past 2 weeks until one of the girls noticed the volcano behind her and it was steaming really hard. The next day it started to drip out little bits of lava so she told the whole village that the volcano was going to erupt but time went past and  it still didn’t erupt. That day everyone got an alert that the volcano was going to blow, so everyone took cover. Some even tried to leave the island. Two weeks later the volcano was finally ready to blow, it started shaking and then boom it spoiled up hot lava but luckily all of the people took charge and took cover and they saved their families and also some people they didn’t even know.




Today I worked with Lealofi and he helped me with my capital letters and full stops. He also helped me with my speech marks.
