Tongan Language Week.

IALT:Read something that relates to my work.

Today marks the start of Tongan Language Week, celebrating the ethnicity of more than 60,000 islanders living in New Zealand. 

 The official launch was held by the Ministry for Pacific Peoples in Auckland on Sunday night.  The week was about celebrating the language at home and with family. This year’s theme is ‘Fakakoloa Aotearoa ‘Aki ‘Ae Nofo ‘A Kainga’ or ‘Enriching Aotearoa with our Family Values’.  

Tongans are the third largest Pacific population in the country, and although the number of Tongans has grown since 2001, their use of the Tongan language has dropped from 57 percent to 53 percent. 

 Events are being held around the country until Saturday 9 September.

What I like about this is that people are showing respects to the Tongan

people and were we come from what I like to hear was the Tongan  came 3th for how many people in there country.

Fitness

IALT:Be good at fitness and to make sure I complete my Goal.

On Tuesday my class and room 10 was doing fitness and it was good but some of us done cross country so they had to run around 2 times but the people that didn't join only had to run once.

What I liked about fitness is that I saw lots of people getting fit and fit and Never Giving Up.

After our run I feel like I need to go for another run to make me get fitter

 and strong.

What I didn't like was that some of our  class went to Kapa Haka and that I can see in there eyes that they didn't want to do the run with us because they were too lazy  but some of us was good because we choose to run around our school.

Kiwi can

IALT:Learn how to show self control.

Today at kiwi can me and my class was having a great time at kiwi can we had a great day talking about kiwi can and how to show self control  and how to manage our emotion.

what I learned at kiwi can was a lot of things and that I learned things that I didn't know as well.

The Activities that we had was making our own handshake and another game too but I forgot the name it was called. 

I would like to thank you to the kiwi can teacher for using their time to come and teach us things is positive and good to use when we are older.

What we need to work on is to listen to the speaker and use our inside voice when we are going back to class because our teacher was not happy at us so we needed to go back down and re walk up to our classroom.

Fitness

IALT:Be Active join fitness.

Today Kia Manawanui was having fitness with rm 8 and rm 7 we had a great run and fun what I loved about fitness was that we all showed teamwork and support others to keep going and never give up.

What I didn't like was that I hit my friend Matthew and fall on the ground so I had to help him and because he was bleeding.

What I feel  now is that I  feel like I am going fast and getting fit and loseing weight everyday when we do fitness.

What I need to work on is to make sure that I am looking out for people like my friend I wasn't looking around and I hit him by accident but we still ran around the school having to do fitness can help me lose weight and also  to let people know that I am a active studend.

Monsoon floods in India

IALA:A Monsoon floods in India

Today I was reading something about A Monsoon Floods In India.

 The Rescue workers are scrambling to provide as much aid as possible to millions of people stranded by the worst floods in south Asia for years.

The death toll in Bangladesh, Nepal and India is now 1200 people.

Two weeks of rainfall has cut off thousands of villages and deprived people of food and clean water.

The United Nations said about 41 million people have been affected by the flooding and tens of thousands of homes, schools and hospitals have been destroyed.

South Asia suffers from frequent flooding during the monsoon season, which lasts from June to September, but authorities have said this year’s floods have been much worse.
