What Is The Corona virus?

The Corona virus is a flue-like virus that has cross the world rapidly, it has made a huge impacted on the world but has also made an unexpected side effect:a positive environmental impact.

Since the beginning of the outbreak around New Year’s Eve last year we had to change the way we live and shut down all factories and school so the air has had a huge decrease in it's pollution. Just because it has had a great impacted on the Earth we still have to keep safe so remember to wash your hands both before and after eating and playing.   

Hamlin Hill

On the 26th of February room 7 and 1 went to Hamlin Hill but first we had a lesson with Frazier at school so we could learn more about what we have to do and what we shouldn't do like we have to stay on track and we can't go in front of Frazier and we also had to look after the binoculars that were given to us. We learnt about animals that were killing our native animals and killing our trees and plants, the type of pests that were killing native animals and killing our trees are possums, ferret, weasel, Mustela, which are in the Mustelidae family.

when we got there we had to clean our shoes because if we didn't we could kill our native trees and plants so what we did was spray our shoes then brush of any germs then we started our walk to the top.

Once we got to the top we had our lunch while Frazier told us stories about why they kill the pest and how we can take more care about our beautiful planet.

The day was fun but it had to end sometime so then we went back to the bus and we all went back to school with more knowledge.

Water Fun Day

On 5th of March Ruapotaka had a Water fun day (it's basically a day of water and fun). We all had to wear something that was in our house colour, my one  house is yellow but in Maori it is Kowhai. I used wore a lava lava which is worn by Polynesians and other Oceanic peoples, I also wore a yellow buttoned up shirt too.

Their There was a water slide that Mrs. Golder was hosting and Mr. Reid was hosting a game that was played by trying to get water balloons in the bucket, . Their There was a bucket that would give you 1 point and ,one that gives you 5 and the last one is gives10 points, which was kind of hard but you got to focus and then you can get it.

Lastly we all came together and the teachers totalled up all the scores and the winners were....... Kowhai (YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!) at the end of the day we basically all won because we all got a bottle from Mrs. Golder's husband, so if your you're reading this Mrs. Golder can you tell your husband, thank you!!!

All About Me

Malo e lelei, Kia Orana and hello. My name is Alamoni and I live in New Zealand also known as Aotearoa. My city is Auckland and I go to Ruapotaka school.

I am a year 8 student and my teacher’s name is Mrs Cardoza. She is a great teacher and is very kind!!! I’m Tongan and Cook Island and have 3 siblings. One is a boy and the other two are girls. We all live with our mum and dad.

My hobbies are Rugby, Basketball, Soccer; I enjoy many more sports but out of them all my favourite one is Rugby. Hopefully I can turn that into a career and if I did become a professional rugby player I think I’d play for Tonga. 

My goal in life is to do extremely great in primary school and college. Also I am trying to go to university and learn more about mechanics and rugby to make my mark on history.

Finally my favourite colours are blue, yellow, and black, I love food and fruit ( I think I got that from my dad as he also loves fruit ) 

Well that is everything about me thank you for reading my blog. 

  

My last tech

On the first day of cooking I was so excited to see what we were going to make because I knew every class we go to we are learning about something that well be common to our adult life and my favourite one would have to be cooking because we would cook what we eat and we always learn something else to make when we are adults and have our own kids so I it's great to have someone teach us what we could make, (name of teacher: Mrs Tuipulotu.)
we all learnt new skills and techniques to cut common food we would use when we are older like cutting a tomatoes, onions, and other things.


my favourite one out of all of them would have to be the British breakfast because there was so much elements on one plate and we got to see all the food British people eat.

We could have not learnt all these types of food without our teacher Mrs Tuipulotu and I would like to thank her because she has made my life easier for me so thank you!!!
