Jolie- Serving Dinner at Sports Camp

Kia Orana,

Last week students from Glen Innes School went to sports camp at Totara Springs in Matamata. While we were there I with 5 of my friends, got the chance to serve dinner to six schools.  It was really cool because I like how some of the kids used their manners. As you can see in the photo I was serving the jelly, on my right was Charm serving the ice-cream and on my left was Tuakana serving the vegies and gravy. I liked serving because when everyone finished their food we got to have all of the left overs, that means we got to have whatever was left. I got a lot of food and I loved it. 

Jolie - Tongan Language Week

This week is Tongan language week this means people all over New Zealand will be learning new things about the Tongan culture, I learnt how to say 10 in Tongan this is how you spell it Hongofulu. At our school we are celebrating by decorating the foyer with Tongan decorations. Sometimes at our school we don't like being with other cultures.  To fix this I would like to get everyone who are in in rooms 7,8 and let them get to know each other so that they just don't judge kids by their culture.

Jolie- Maori Himene

Today my class and I had maori with Ms Maude and we also learnt a new song called E Te Ariki. This is also called a himene some people may pronounce it as hi - me - ne but it is actually pronounced as Hymn. I knew the song of by heart and was I happy to harmonise with the rest of the children. It was really funny when the boys were learning their part but it was cool when we found out one of the boys could sing. I can't wait for the next maori practice because on that day we are going to learn a Karakia.

Jolie- Creating Pressure

This science experience was about the strength of the hand. Mya,Nataliya,Rebecca,Ashley and I tried it out and it was very hard, some of us had to use both hands just to get arrow to the other side. On the board it said "How much pressure can you create?" I could only go up to 30.

Jolie- Multiplication of Fractions

Today in maths we were learning to  multiply fractions.We were in a little group of 7 and each had different question.We were in this group because we needed extra help. We used counters to solve the problem.  Here are some pictures of us solving the problems. I have to practice my maths at home to accelerate in my learning.
