Matariki Celebration

My first hangi at school.

I am writing about Matariki Celebration. Matariki is all about spending time with your family and having a good time. Matariki is the eldest sister in the cluster; they are actually nine stars. Matariki protects the other stars. Waiti is the youngest sister. The second youngest sister is Waita.

Matariki is a star cluster, not a constellation. Matariki puts the other sister in their space. Room 8 and all of the other classes were making art for Matariki. We made something on our chromebook and we made slides. We had to write facts about Matariki then everyone finished but some of them didn't finish. When we were doing the slides Mrs Lamas was stapling our wishing star in the whole way.

Mrs Lamas made the shape like a M and it stands for Matariki. We started going to the other classes in the middle block. The first class we went to was room 10 , room 11 , room 7 , room 6 , room 2 and 3 then the last class we went to was room 4 when we left we sang a song is Maori and it was macalen

Finally we went to the hall for our hangi and these were the stuff inside chicken , Vegan pumpkin and kumara. Then I only ate the kumada and some pumpkin and some vegetables.

Cold morning

            Cold morning

        Today this morning was super Cold.

This morning on friday 3 of july , 2020. I was so cold I put some blakcet’s on me. I didn't even feel like getting out of bed. I put socks on me. My fingers were about to get numed I went under the blankets.

Then I was getting ready to go to school. First I put on my school uniform. At first I was going to brush my teeth but then I just wanted to change. When I was going to change I went with the blanket. When I finished changing I went to put on my shoes.

After putting on my shoes I went to my sister to do my hair. I went to brush my teeth. Then we all finished then we were walking to school. When we were walking my bag was so heavy because my shared lunch was in my bag.

Then we ended up at school. I was even cold there but when I went to class it was warm then I wanted to go and play outside at the court I ask Bobby if I can play with the ball then he said yes I was just playing shots then the bell rang then we had to sit down but some of them were standing and my but was wet then mr told us to go to class then we went when we went to class we did learning.

My Mask

                     

                                   My Mask

My first time I've made a mask with a paper towel



On Monday the 25th of May 2020 I made a paper towel mask. Mask is something which people wear to cover their full face or part of their face. People wear masks to protect themselves from the disease or air-bone disease.





I made the mask at Glen Innes School in room 8. I ask Boston if he can help me to make the mask and this is how I made the mask. I folded it like a fan and after that, I folded the sides and it was both of the sides not that big. Then after that, I put the rubber bands on and the color was purple and after that, I stapled and I tried it on and it fit me but after a few minutes, the mask ripped so I made another one.



You can use a mask for going shopping or going to different places and you can make the mask with a bandana too. I felt so happy because I got to make my own mask.

Lockdown

Lockdown is a state of isolation or restricted access instituted as a security measure. New Zealand went on Lockdown 26 of March 2020. The reason why New Zealand went under lockdown was because of coronavirus. Another name for coronavirus is COVID_19. COVID_19 is a disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus. CO stands for corona VI stands for virus and D stands for disease. It started towards the end of 2019. The government came up with 4 levels. Level 4 being the top level and that’s when we went under lockdown. We all had to stay in our own bubble so we stop the spread of the virus Only the essential workers were allowed to go to work. This is so that So they can serve the people that are on lockdown.In lockdown in New Zealand they were only these essential workers that were only allowed to go work like doctors, aged care workers, supermarket workers, police officers, fire fighters. Non-essential workers were not allowed to go to work such as teachers, dairy, all of the takeaway shop workers and so on. In lockdown me and my family were playing tag outside but not my dad and mum. My dad used to work. I lived with my cousins and my grandma during lockdown. I have enjoyed the lockdown because I get to spend time with my family.
