The beach trip

  The beach Trip

 On the holidays me and my sister plus my two aunts went on a beach trip that was far away from my house.

It had massive waves in the water I nearly drowned. The water was cold and warm.

Then I ran out of the water and went to tell my aunty. So then I just stayed out of the water for a little while. Then when I felt good I just went back into the water.

Then my uncle came with his friend from work and just went straight into the water. 

And it took forever for them to come back out of the water.

So them we waited and waited until they wanted to get out.

Finally I said I was ready and everyone else was ready to get into the car and go home. When we left in the sky was beautiful colours. The colours were all blended up and we took heaps of photos and videos for memories.

Aloha bloggers.

On Wednesday our school went to an art centre in Auckland. First one of the staff came to take us in for a tour. Then they talked to us about all of the pacific countries and how they came to be in New Zealand.

Then when they taught us about all of the Pacific countries we started to do our workshop. There was two types of workshops one was called the Garden of Eden wich you can make leis for your family. The other work shop was drumming.  Drums had different names like skin drums and log drums.

The last part of the day was the Hawaiin dance and I loved it. My favourite part of the day was the drumming because we could hit the drums and follow the rhythm. My other favourite part of the day was making a lei for my mum. My lei had a lot of colours like blue, purple, red, white, black and magenta. The pattern we had to follow was flower straw flower straw. You use the straw to make spaces in between of the flowers.

After everything was finished I felt so happy because the staff there were very funny and kind and it was so fun there I wanted to go there again.
