KPMG Thank you letter, and aspect of my day :)

Kia ora, 1 week ago on Friday us year 7’s went to the KPMG Headquarters where Justine and her colleagues. It was really interesing to come there because it was our first time; It felt amazing and fun to meet new KPMG people. It was fun listening to them while they were introducing themselves because we could learn about something from them.

The tour was really exciting because we had Melissa as our tour guide and she matched our energy so much!! We were really enthusiastic but we enjoyed having her :).

The morning tea and lunch were very delicious and tasty, Cris kindly gave me two fillets because I asked nicely. It made us feel very appreciated and looked after. Thank you KPMG so much !! bye 😛

Pink shirt day

Kia ora, Today is the international pink day which is an Anti-bullying and Anti-homophobia and especially LGBTQ+ youth; “What is pink shirt day?” Pink shirt day is a yearly Anti-bullying campaign  where people wear pink to show their support to diversity, kindness and teamwork. Pink shirt day originally started in Canada in 2007, when two students responded to a student being bullied for wearing pink. It spread globally including to New Zealand.

Anti-Bullying is the main goal to combat bullying and creating a culture of kindness;  It encourages treating everyone with fairness and respect, no matter their gender, sexuality, age, abilities, religion, or culture. It’s a day where we make people safe, valued, and respected; It encourages people to speak up and help those who are being bullied.

Although Pink Shirt Day is a single day, it serves as a reminder to keep promoting kindness and belonging all year long. I hope you enjoyed reading my Pink day blog post, Goodbye 🙂

Bleach

Kia ora, Last week we did a reading response to the book we read; We had to use two thinking hats, Green and black ( I think because I can’t remember). We did all thinking hats last term and sometimes we kept using some of the same ones like red, black or white.

My book was about when high school life; Ichigo kurosaki meets this female soul reaper called Rukia Kuchiki and his life changed when he met her. Soon he was one of the soul reapers too, He finds himself having adventures, as well as problems. Aizen ( Ichigo’s uncle ) becomes stronger and stronger, Meanwhile Ichigo continues losing his friends.

I try my best to do my reading respones right, Although some of them are. Please me let know if it’s good or bad so I can fix something wrong :p

Term 1 Project

Today this year and term, We’ve been doing our visual pepeha. And our “Ko wai au?” for the whole week, Our project was our reading response, writing, and facts about us. We also did an art about our culture and how it connects to our family and selves. I liked doing our project and I’d rate it an 8 out of 10 because some of us took so long to finish it; And we had to do it all week since term 1 started. We will continue in term 2 to present our presentation and projects.

I hope you enjoyed reading my first blog this year, bye.

Thank you KPMG.

Last week, we were writing a “Thank you Kat and KPMG” slideshow for them because of what we learned and what we liked about it. We really appreciated them for what they did for us. I really loved it.

The reason why we wrote this is because they prepared the Whanau fun day, Christmas presents, and alot more and last year. All of us wrote a slideshow about thanking them.

It was so fun doing this because I almost had the same design as my classmate next to me; But we really really like KPMG and we love them so much.

 

Thirst D.L.O

Today me and my group Kererū have been reading this book called “Thirst”. Sadly we haven’t finished it so we were posting it today.  We read all the paragraphs from the story, and I’ve learnt that the children can’t waste water because their  dad will get mad at them. It was like they lived in a poor household and far away. The children’s names were Ryder and Brooke. On the second paragraph, There’s a short story That I wrote about them.

In the story, Ryder hauled himself in the hill, His uniform sticking to his skin. The hot sun was doing its best to get him back down the slope. Him and his sister, Brooke were walking down the shade of water cultivators. It was a long time since their sails had caught anything but sunlight and dust. Which means nothing. In their driveway, He paused. He looked up at the worn out trees where he’d tied his collection of tiny cans. There’s alot of stuff happening in the story and I can’t fit in my blog. I might get in trouble.

Deep inside, I feel bad for them because of what theyre doing. I know it’s just a story but you know what I mean? If you feel bad for them too,  I can relate. But this is all my blog is about, A digital  learning object.

I hope you like my post, Especially the paragraphs I’ve made so far. Ask me what you liked, Give me a suggestion, Tell me what you liked! 🙂 I hope you have a good day reading this <3.

How I go to school.

Today we had to write about how we go to school. We had to use directions and how we actually prepare when waking up. It’s actually fun going to school in my opinion.

You know why? because we can play, learn and get to know people there in our school. we can ride bikes if we have our time, we can have sports too if it’s our turn.

In my writing, it’s kinda messy for me to explain because I haven’t learn proper English and I’m still learning. Feel free to correct but yeah! I appreciate comments on my post. 🙂

Check me out!

today we had to write a “Check me out!” Matua Aina made on our class site Cybersmart, This was fun to do, do you know why? its like a pepeha introducing ourselves and our fun facts that people had to know. It’s also like information about you that others can check for fun.

I’m gonna tell you a fact, Did you know sharing your online privacy gives you more people who can access your personal space, Like hackers and stuff they can know. Like knowing where you live, your phone number and your email, passwords. Im telling you this Incase you might reveal it to someone online so stay safe out there!

Learn Te reo maori

Today we had to write about “Should we still learn Te reo maori in our curriculum?”. because some of us needed to learn Maori and the reason is some people who are different from us are Asian and European. They can learn abouut New Zealand s history through-out the years. We should be able to learn Te reo maori because our waita has Te reo maori words.

David Seymour is a New Zealand politician who has been the leader of “Association of Consumers and Taxpayers.” since 2014, He currently serves as the 1st minister for Regulation in the Sixth national Government under Christoper Luxon. David Seymour is a minister of regulation  of New Zealand. He thinks that while learning Te Reo Māori is important, it shouldn’t be forced on everyone. He believes people should have the choice to learn it if they want to, but he’s not sure if the government should make it a requirement in schools. So, basically, he wants people to decide for themselves if they want to learn the language or not.

Commenting in my blog post and liking them is an appreciation and kindly respecting, I would be happy about it. Thank you for reading my blog or learning something important about it.

Raa Whakanuia

Kia ora, today we had to write, “Should Raa Whakanuia be this Wednesday?” because we didn’t get to celebrate it last Friday. We want to make sure everyone can join in and have a great time. We hope moving it to Wednesday works better for everyone but we didn’t make a good choice yesterday.

Do you know what Raa whakanuia means? Raa Whakanuia is important because it allows us to celebrate our achievements and reflect on the progress we’ve made. It’s a time to recognize hard work and dedication in our community. During this celebration, we come together to share stories of success and support each other. By acknowledging our accomplishments, we inspire each other to keep striving for even greater things and build a stronger, united community!

Me receiving comments and likes on my blog is exciting because it means people are engaging with my learning and enjoying what I write. When others interact with my posts, it motivates me to keep writing and sharing more. Positive feedback helps me understand what my readers like and what I can improve. It also builds my confidence and encourages me to continue learning and growing through my writing. this also helps me upgrade my writing!
