Ruapotaka's Manaiakalani Ambassador!!

On Wednesday the 30th of May 2018, Mrs Golder and I went to Somerville School that use to be Tamaki Intermediate for my presentation about Road Safety. The reason why was because I was the Manaiakalani Ambassador for my school, Ruapotaka.

My teacher and I typed a speech on how I made my slideshow and how my learning journey began. I practised first in front of my teacher and a couple of teachers who hosted the programme. I read from another chromebook that they gave to me. 

Finally it was my turn. I was about to shake when I told myself to get on with it and you will feel better when you are finished. At the end of my speech they all clapped as I said Faafetai Lava which means Thank You in Samoan. In the car, Mrs Golder said I am proud of you, you did good.

Road Safety Learning

In the last few weeks, I made a google slide about my Road Safety learning. Learning about this helped me become more aware of the dangers and hazards of roads and vehicles . I enjoyed it because I had help from my teachers and classmates. The more I read and shared my learning  with my classmates,  the more my prior knowledge was extended. Enjoy!!

The Revealing Film

On Wednesday, it was time to reveal the year 8's Manaiakalani film on the huge screen in Sylvia Park. Most of the schools arrived at the Cinemas to watch the films that were created by Manaiakalani schools including Ruapotaka.

The film that was made by the year 8s, was about Rugby Values and how to become a champion player. It was loud and exciting at the same time but mostly the teachers were proud of their students for working together and helping each other.

The movie's main advice is that everyone can achieve more and BE BETTER THAN BEFORE!

Snagit Time!

This is the snagit video that Lupe, Joseph and I made. We made it by taking turns talking and sharing our movies that we made at the Manaiakalani Film festival 2015. Room 9's movie was The Journey and Room 10's movie is called Kotahitanga meaning Unity.

On Wednesday, I went with Katrina to the cinemas at Sylvia Park. When we got there we had a practice on the stage to present Room 10’s movie. We waited until it was our turn to present our movie. We presented it three times, two in the morning and one in the evening. In the evening we ate popcorn and we watched some other movies from other schools because it lasted for two hours. My favourite movie was Pay It Forward because it was funny!
