Speeches.

                                     On Wednesday the 31st of august we had school speeches.

                         It was the actual final where we had to perform in front of the kauri syndicate.

At first I was terribly nervous I didn't want to do my speech. Why? because I was 2nd to last and I heard a lot of good speeches. I kinda wished that I didn't sign up to do a speech.

But i just gave it a go.

My speech mas about why school is important.

I was incredibly nervous.

I had thought's like:

Did I write enough facts,Will I explain it properly,Will it be a good topic.

I had a bunch of thought's holding me back from doing my speech but then I had another thought that said a little something like this..You can't escape you have already signed up.

It was finally my turn.  I started off from nervous to I want to do my speech again. My speech was well presented and I have never though of performing in front of the kauri syndicate.

When everybody finished there speech the judges were doing the results.They were deciding who were 1st,2nd and 3rd.

At last they came in for the results.

In 3rd place with a tie was.......Fifita & Vika!(Vika in green Fifita in the middle)

There time was close to 3 minutes.

In 2nd place was.....Dinah! (me)

For a well presented speech.

1st place was....Danae 

Her speech topic was good and delivered well.

Thank you

Andrea,Mrs Moore, Mrs Mellick and Mrs Barton for setting up the speeches .

Samoan language week.

                                       In week 5 we had Samoan language week 2016.
                               Here is a post of what happened on Samoan Language week.

On Monday we went to the taste of Samoa.We got to see and taste things from the lovely Samoa!Me and Vika's favourite things were the Jewelry and koko from Samoa.The koko was very nice.Me and Vika thought it was so nice that we felt like we were in heaven!

He is a little picture of the koko table.At the bottom right of the photo you can see the beans for the koko. The beans are also made for chocolate in Samoa.Some people didn't really like the Koko or the taste of the Koko bean.It was because they bean kinda tasted like burnt toasts.

This is a photo of Vika wearing something that the people of Samoa will wear for dancing.In the background you could see some Samoan props/things.The props and bags were very lovely and they were handmade!My favourite bag was this coconut bag where you could put water into that bag from the waterfall.

This is a photo of Poe peeling Taro.Samoan people use tin cans to peel taro.We got to try and peel the taro with the tin can.The Samoan people cut the can.Then they use it to peel taro.I think that the can would be easier to peel a taro instead of a knife or grater.

On Wednesday we also had a Samoan independence day.We got to taste a Samoan banana.

This is a photo on the last day of Samoan language week.On Friday we had a Samoan assembly.They did a play called Sina & the Eel.They also sung some song and done some dances.After the assembly we got to eat some chop suey and rice and it was AMAZING! I loved the Samoan language week because it was full of Samoan traditions.What do you like about the Samoan culture or the Samoan language week?
