Think about a beautiful flower.  

Who do you think created that?

If the is beautiful, what do you think about the person who created? Don’t you think he or she is beautiful?

Tongan Language Week

                     

Cross Country Recount

The day started off with beautiful shiny weather. I wasn’t  that keen on running but was determined to do so.  It was the day of Cross Country, an event that brings everybody together. Cross Country didn’t start until 1 o'clock, so we had some time to kill.

We had a lot of to do before Cross Country commenced. In Saint Pius we have 4 groups or houses, the whole school is  put into one of these groups. I’m in the Tui's group. Each group had to come up with a chant. Tui’s decided to create a new chant.

When it hit 12 : 45 the bell rang, and everybody lined up in there houses.  We all had to walk down to the start line. The first race was the Room 1 and 4 children. Once the blocks thumped together, all of the children zoomed off.

Then it was our turn. My hands were sweating and my heart thrashing with no end. BOOM ! Off we went.

As I reached the finish line, I started to run. Then all my pain and discomfort came to it’s end. I was relieved and grateful that it was over. It wasn’t quite over yet, we still had our chants to perform. We shouted as loud as we possibly could. The day ended with the sun still shining, and children smiling.

Saint Pius Feast Day

The day started off with a beautiful glimmer. Children running around like chickens without heads. Teacher's screaming like the world was ending. This mass was cruel and every little detail needed to be perfect. All of the readers needed to practice, the slideshow checked and the singing rehearse over and over. What a day!

The mass started beautifully with a elegant song. The mass continued with beautiful readings, a teaching homily and magnificent singing and hymns.  I had the honor and privilege to represent Room 7 with my poem.  Each class in our school had to write a poem our Saint Pius X. I decided to write a diamante poem.

After the mass a cutting of the cake ceremony. Every year we have a big cake, which we share among ourselves. All of the year 8 girls had to help in distributing the cake. Before this happened Oscar and Sako had to cut the cake.

I learnt more about Saint Pius X as I do every year. This feast day was my last and bestest.  

Our Magical Trip

Thoughts jogging  through my mind. My mind spinning and spinning with endless excitement. This was  caused by our trip to Kelly Tarltons. It first commenced  by  walking down a blue and magical walkway. We walked down until we reached our destination. My first thought was what if ?  or what will happen ?

We were given specific instructions to walk until we reached the Penguins. I loved every moment of it. I wished it had never ended. My favorite part from our first activity was hanging out with my friends. After that we carried on as we walked by,  there were pieces of information for us to read.

The day continued with lots of learning for me, and for the school. When we extended  to the tunnel, I found this  fascinating and beautiful. I adored every bit of staring at the sharks and other marine animals.    

My favorite part from our trip  was the tunnel, because it was an great experience. I would love to go back to Kelly Tarltons.
