Science Intensive - Water Pollution

Today Room 7 students had to go around and take a look at the Glenbrae school Drains.Inside the drains there were a lot of rubbish and some had no water in it.I noticed that rubbish were lying on the ground and on the grass.Mrs Tofa had to take a lot of photos so we can try to create a presentation, Movie, do a clean up project or just create a poster.Mostly the rubbish was from chip packets.

For Water Pollution, I learnt that If we throw rubbish in the sea or Throw chemical into the Toilet, it is gonna kill sea life and people will be swimming in dirty water.

Here are Some Photos:

My Brother's Birthday

On Sunday the 19th 2017, it was my Brother’s Birthday.I woke up in the morning and said Happy Birthday, but I had to get ready to go church.

When I got to church people were happy to see me because I was in America and It was a long time my church hasn’t see me and my Grandma.In church we had Sunday school and there was two services.

The First service was done by Inoke’s father.Then the second service was done by my cousin's father, but when he was praying, my Grandma and I left to go home.

As soon as I got home, There were fish,Vegetables,Pork, Lambs and Kumara already ready for my brothers birthday.Kids got Beef and Onion Pizza and the parents ate fish and other Kinds of Food.

I was so glad that we got to make food and celebrate my Brother’s 14th Birthday. :)

Paora Tuhaere

Maori Version:
I whānau mai a Paora Tūhaere i te takiwā o te tau 1825. Nō te iwi o Ngāti Whātua o Tāmaki-makau-rau, o Kaipara. E tamariki tonu ana a Tūhaere ka iriiria. Ka puta te rongo mōna hei rangatira whakatau i te riri, kāpā hei toa i roto i te pakanga. I te tau 1841 ko ia tētahi i pōwhiri i a Kāwana Hopihona kia neke i tōna tāone matua mai i te Pēwhairangi ki ngā tahatika o Te Waitematā; ko ia hoki tētahi ka hoko whenua kia tipu ai te tāone o Ākarana. Ahakoa te mea kāore a Ngāti Whātua i whirinaki atu ki te Kīngitanga, ka kaha haere tō rātou ātete i te hokonga whenua i te tekau tau atu i 1850.
