Thank You Coach Pete!!

On Tuesday, it was the last day for tennis with Coach Pete. For the last day, we had a bit of fun. We were split up into two groups. When we were split into two groups, we had to choose a partner to play. It soon became "Duo v Duo". I was partnered with Leaaepeni and we thrashed everyone until Leaaepeni did one slite mistake and we were defeated, but it was fun.

After that, I did a thank you speech to Coach Pete and we shook hands like Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.

All I Do Is STUDY STUDY STUDY No Matter What!!

In the weekends, it was kind of boring, (well a lot boring), because all I did was study for my test on Wednesday, the 28th. The exam was to find out what class I would go to for college. My dad said that it will be worth it.

Next year I will be going to Edgewater College, where my sister is currently going to now. I can't wait!! (😒😒😒).

Donate To Charity!!

On Wednesday, my group went to Mr Pineda's class at Tamaki College for tech. We continued on our charity box that we made last week.

The idea of my charity box was to make a cylinder made out of cardboard, then cut two circles to tape at the end of the cylinder to make it look like a piggy-bank. Then I would put a cardboard and fold it and finally glue it to the cylinder to make it look a roof on a pole.

I made this because I don't want homeless people to live on the streets. I also will paint on the roof, "Save The Homeless."

Who would you do a charity box for?

And SCORE!! The Crowd Goes WILD!!

It has been the first time Ireland has won over the All Blacks since a phenomenal 111 years!! Ireland beat All Blacks 16-9, with a classic try in the first half. All Blacks tried to score a try but Ireland's defence was unbeatable including the three times All Blacks had an opportunity to try but couldn't.

I cheered for the Ireland because something inside of me knows that they still have a lot to go. Who would you cheer for?

Remember The Armistice!!

What is Armistice Day? Well, Armistice Day, (Ar-mis-tice Day), is mostly like ANZAC Day. It was an agreement made by opposing sides in a war to stop  fighting for a certain time or known as the truce.

It is only celebrated on the 11th hour, 11th day and the 11th month which will be celebrated this Sunday, the 11th of November. Room 12 were separated into groups and we first studied what Armistice Day means and why we celebrate it. I was the Team Captain of the Liza, Vika and Julianne. This is our slideshow.

The Movie Is Revealed!!

On the 7th of November, we went to the Hoyts for the special 11 year Manaiakalani Film Festival!! Tupouseini and I had to go early to the movies because we had to present our class's film. We had to go to three cinemas including the Extreme Screen!!

Then we had to walk to Cinema 3 to present our movie again in-front of our school! It was a fun experience but Mrs Vickers reminded me that we still had to present it in the night time for our parents.

From today I still have butterflies in my stomach.

Coach Pete Is Here!!

On Tuesday, we had Tennis with Coach Pete. It was pretty nerve-racking because I have no experience with a Tennis racket. Luckily, Coach Pete taught me all through the steps.

I was partnered with Katrina and after a little while, Sosiua joined our group. We started off by hitting the tennis ball at or near the cone.

Then we started a rally and we always swapped after a while if we had three or more people in our team.

I hope that we get more practice in the weeks to come. It was fun!!
