My Taonga (owl necklace)

My Taonga is very special to me. It is like a pirate, finding some dazzling rare treasure.

It's my twinkling Owl necklace.

The peacock feathers on the owl are as sort as cat's fur.

The dark, black eyes gleam in the sunshine.

I saw it sitting on the shelf, holding it's breath.

And from this day on it has been my Taonga. 

Maori Instrument Putorino

A putorino is a flute. It is a musical instrument that the Maori used. It is made from wood,paua shell and natural fiber. The sound is described as water being poured. It was used around the 1700-1850! That is a long time.

We read a story called Tama's Putorino.

 

We thought that the Putorino was VERY fascinating.

 

So we decided to do some research on it.This is our report on a Putorino which is a Maori Flute.

 

A Putorino is a Maori instrument. Now a day we would call the Putorino a Flute.

 The Putorino is a wooden wind instrument or bugle-flute made from two split pieces hollowed and bound together.

This was a report about a Putorino by Shinaye and Katie.

Flynn's Horse Riding Story

I have a horse called Buddy. I go horseriding on Tuesdays at 9.15 am. I go there every week. We go over the coloured poles. Buddy doesn’t like going from red to the other pole because he is not good at that yet.  I’ll just tell him to go straight ahead so he is confident with that.

 

The trotting was so fun. My bottom was bouncing and I make sure that my feet are still up. I need to keep them up all the time while I am riding so that I can give Buddy a kick to give him the message to walk.

 

Buddy has to stay in the arena until they say to get out of it. Sometimes Buddy tries to escape out of the gate so I have to tell him who is the BOSS!

 

 

 

      in the school holidays me my sister Emily, Alana and Alana's brother went to the aquatic centre because we your bored. when we got there I went over

My fun holiday!

At the start of the holidays, Kia came round my house to pick me up for a sleepover, I didn't know how much days I was staying, so I asked. She said she was wondering if I would like to stay for 2 WHOLE WEEKS! Wow that would be great I thought, but what about my family? I thought about it for a while and then I said "that would be great but maybe instead of coming home Saturday can I come home on Thursday, so my family can still have me for part of the holidays?" I asked. She said of course and understood.
