Duffy Assembly - Niva Retimanu

During Assembly, we had a duffy role model who was a news reader and a trained journalist based in Auckland, New Zealand, Her name was Niva Retimanu. Niva Retimanu was born in Invercargill a city near down in the Southern tip in New Zealand South island, also born to Samoan parents. Niva has taken part of the radio industry and has been working there for 30 years. One more fact about her is that she is best known for her distinctively deep and rich toned voice.

First she had talked about herself and about her Job. She said that in the South island it used to snow, hail and rain a lot of time. Niva used to go to the library every time just to read a book. She brought a book with her to read to us. The name of the book was “Kiss Kiss, Yuck Yuck”. Niva said to repeat what she says the words was “ It’s cool to read and it’s good to archive”.

After that she handed out duffy books to the classes, also everyone was singing the duffy song.

What is a French toast? French toast is a bread dipped in a mixture of hardened beaten egg, often added with milk and fried on both sides.

Ingredients:
  • Egg
  • Milk
  • Bread
  • Black Pepper
  • Oil
  • Salt
Utensil:
  • Pan
  • Whisk
  • Big Spoon
  • Paper towel

1.First you crack 12 eggs into a big bowl

2.Then add salt and black pepper into the bowl

3.Next you start stirring it until you the yellow yolk is gone

4.Afterwards you add in milk to make it taste nice and good

5.As soon as you finished mixing the egg, you turn on the frying pan and embed the oil inside.

When you pour it in, you would hear the sizzling sound just like the sausage being fried.

You grab one bread to put it inside the egg, start flipping the bread back and forth so it doesn’t break into pieces.

Last of all you have the bread in the frying pan ready to be eaten.

This is how french toast is made.

Week 7 Problem Solving

Today I have been solving question 1 which had numbers, Their are 14 kaumatua,16 tables, seat for 9 people,2 tables can seat 8 people.My strategy was:

16 x 9 =
10 X 9 = 90
6 X 9 = 54
90 + 54 = 144

2 X 8 = 16
144 + 16 = 160
160 + 14 = 174

So the answer is 174!!!.
