I am old. When I met Storm Boy I think I scared him at first because I came out of nowhere and gave him a fright when I welcomed him to the Coorong. I have a very wrinkly face but I have lots of energy to teach Storm Boy about nature. I have so much knowledge of this area because my ancestors have lived here for hundreds of years. I love Storm Boy like my own son and I even put up a pole high on the beach so he can find his way home during a storm.

Today we have been learning how to write a good email. I learned to write a greeting. I Also learned to write clearly about a subject. Then I have to sign off with my name. In the end I have to proofread my writing before I send it.

Today June 15th 2023 we were researching people in other schools. I chose Panmure Bridge student called Keira and I had to make informed guesses about her from the information she shared. . We have to be careful what we post online and only say positive, thoughtful comments about others.
Yesterday, on the 14th June 2023 all of our house teams were versing one another in a game of ki o rahi. The first round and my name was called out. I was so nervous because I had to play against some kids from room 7 and 8. The second game we lost to Totara and we were the taniwha but it was not that bad actually. It was totally hilarious and we all had fun. At the end of the game we came last and Kauri won the tournament. To be honest it dosen’t matter who won because we all had a great time playing sport together.
ANZAC Biscuits
Last Thursday we were learning about ANZAC cookies and their history. In the 1915’s there was a World War and our soldiers were fighting in war as well as the women nursing the wounded soldiers. Families back home baked these biscuits and sent them to them a long way away. They had to travel a long way but they were still nice when they got there. I tried it and it tasted marvellously sweet and even others thought it was lovely too. It felt like a round log because it was circular. In the end I WANTED MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
On Sunday 19 March, I woke up to a mad back, but I was still happy because it was the 175th jubilee celebration at school. When we arrived at school we were one hour late and when I went inside to go to my seat I was so squished so the other people could have space [we did that to be kind].
A while later Tongan people started to walk down the aisle singing a Tongan song. Two men were carrying a fata with a girl sitting on it. After that we went to the hall and sang two songs called MO MARIA, E TI WE E and the Irish blessing. After that we had to leave because of family business but I was happy to be a part of the 175th jubilee.
This morning Mrs Grant came to our class and she gave us activities on our Chromebooks. One was teaching us how to use our keyboards and some of the activities were easy and others were harder. My friends were asking me questions so I couldn’t concentrate properly. My favourite shortcut is to press Ctl Shift t to get back to tab you were on before. It was a fun session.
