War world one

Today we got to learn about people whom actually served in the war. My buddy was Setaita and we got a picture of a woman called Harriet Simeon who was a part of the WROF. That stands for Woman's Royal Air Force. Then we also had a man called Matuha's birth certificate. Some of the information was not filled in like when his birthday was and he also did not know the name of his parents back then people were very racist. Our teacher got an exclusive pack from some school kit.

Production

This week we had Production and it lasted for 2 days and both performances were at night and one was 1:30pm. Our production was about toys and we did a performance about Barbies and Kens. My partner
was a boy and he was barbie and I was ken. During all performances we watched movies and at the end we all went on the stage and sang Zip Zap Avenue. We had great fun at the production.

Matariki

This week we learnt about Matariki. Matariki is a bunch of stars and they're also known as the nine sisters. It used to be seven sisters but then scietensts discovered 2 other stars. All nine stars have meanings. One of the star's (Pohutukawa) meaning remembers those who have passed. Another one (Waiti) watches over our freshwater and environments and one welcomes winter sky and waters.

That's not all, there are more meanings to all nine stars.
