For the last 5 weeks we have been doing novel studies about the book Cuz illustrated by Liz Van Deer Laasre.

I really recommend the book because there are a lot of twists and turns and that what I find in a book . My favourite chapter is actually chapter 1 one because it really introduces the character in the book is Tau and Huia because they seem really interesting and adventurist, oh and they seem to not be afraid to express there Te ao Maori that lies with in . Well hope you enjoyed reading my blog and hopefully you get to read this marvellous story for yourself.

On the 28 of Nov the seniors went to sandy beach and had some surfing lessons. When we arrived we saw the surfing instructors getting all the bored’s and wet suits ready . We stopped and started to abored the bus also spiting into our two groups. one group was My class and a few other kids and the other group was room 5 & 6.  The first group was my class, we had a briefing and a practise before we went to the water. once we finished we walked down to the water and waited for some big waves. When the big waves arrived i slowly began to stand on my bored there were a few crashes that happened but eventually with some practice I stood up for a solid 8 seconds for a total of 6 11 times. When it was time to swap groups we got changed and I was so happy that I just accomplished that. While the other group surfed we had lunch and played around. We even played soft ball with big stick a little round piece of wood and our crocs. When ever one had tided up sang a waiata and thanked the instructors and made our way back to school.

On the 30th of october we stood on the Te Mana Kuratahi. There were alot emotions going on but I was mostly excited with determination to come top 10 in the placings. We walked to the beach to have a karakia in the water. It was such a cool and chill memorie. After that we had finished that kaupapa the girls and the boys split up into our own little stations to get ready for the stage. The girls went to the tutors room and the boys went to the hall. There were alot of people that were there to help get ass ready. When we finished, Qwayd brought everyone some sushi after we finished getting ready. A few moments later we had eaten and we were on our way to the atamira. When we arrived we had to wait in our waiting room. Well we were in there. We put on the girls piupiu and made some corrections to our kakahu. Then suddenly we got a call to come to the back of the stage. We were so pumped and ready for the stage and all emotions were high. When we finished we made our way outside when we saw our whanau and our supporters waiting for us outside. We took some photos, got changed and ran back to watch the last groups of the day. They were so amazing and so were we. After that louded up our bus and made our way back to our reservation in Mapua.
