FIREWORKS FESTIVAL
I woke up to a cold breeze smashing against my face and the sun warming up my skin. Mum was yelling out, “Hope darling”, Hope darling ,It's time to wake up come on it's Guy Fawkes today”.
I quickly rush out of bed and get dressed before I go to have breakfast. I wash my face, Brush my hair and wash my hands then I go and sit at the table. “So mum?...” I asked,
“ What are we doing today?”,
“Well darling” she replies while making breakfast,
“We will go shopping, get some fireworks and then come home to get changed before we head out to Green Lake Park for the fireworks festival. We will have dinner there and have a look around”.
I finished my breakfast, did my dishes then headed for the bathroom to brush my teeth. While I was brushing my teeth I was wondering why mum was arranging for this special day.
“Darling it time to go.” mum yells from the bottom of the stairs.
We get in the car and away we go. Cruising down the streets passing other cars, the bright yellow sun fills the sky with light and the clear blue sky is as clear as the ocean. We arrive at K-mart and we do half an hours worth of shopping, as we walked past the fireworks station I saw a fireworks packet that contained Ground spinners, sparklers, firecrackers and smoke bombs.
“Can I have that firework pack please?”, I asked mum hoping that she will say yes.
“Alright take one off the shelf and carry it to the counter”.
After paying for the my fireworks we went home.

Basketball reflection #2
Today I went to kiwisport basketball,With 6 members of my class. We participated in lay up drills,shooting drills and had a 4 on 4 game. Our couch whose name is couch Malek taught us what a double dribble,travell and a carry is. He taught us the signs for fouls and 3 throws. I learnt today how to do a under the bridge off fence technique that helps you get closer to the hoop and score a good lay up. I think I did well in basketball with the way I participated and contributed and also with my teamwork effort. Next time I will try to get better and shooting and better my ball handling.

What I think about tamaki
Today for during the middle block our class had a group discussion on how we can make our school a better place? and also on, what makes our school special?. We had to get into groups of four and discuss and brainstorm about the questions above. This is what my group and I came up with.
How can we make our school a better place?
- We can do this by getting new sports equipment,
- Helping out where help is needed,
- Demonstrating good behavior,
- Stopping the tagging,
- Respecting students and teachers
- learning from your mistakes.
- Keeping our school grounds tidy/clean,
- and no vandalising
Our second question was What makes tamaki special?
- What makes tamaki special is the bond everyone has,
- The school values we show,
- The learning we do,
- The environment we have,
- The different cultures we celebrate,
- The differences we embrace,
- And the bond people have with each other.
I think our school is the best because people from different cultures build strong bonds with each other, respect is shown around and also because we have pride in everything we do. The main reason why I think our school is special is because our school was one of the first to use notebooks and I the main reason on how I think we can make our school a better place is by Stopping the tagging and vandalising that happens all the time.
