Marae Noho

27/6/18   WALT write a recount that informs and entertains your reader.
Title: Our marae noho

Introduction:

Last thursday on a wet cloudy, rainy, windy morning. Rooms 3, 4 and 5, went on a
noho at kohewhata marae. Other people that came to support us were teachers and
parents. How we traveled to the marae was from the magic school bus.

What we did first was all the helpers were stacking the bags 1 by 1. Then I walked
through a cold, icy, puddle as whaea mary gave us a powhiri into the marea. Papa
vic was the guy who did the karakia then Whaea mary was the one that did the himine
and sonny did the mihi. After all that it was morning tea. At morning tea we ate our
own lunch.

Then we got into 5 groups without the year eights because they had to cook dinner
I was wondering what it was gonna be. After that each group did two activates each
before lunch I was in group two. First we had whaea gaylen in my opinion she had
the best job and what group two made with whaea gaylen was a koauau. A koauau
is something you put your lips on and blow lightly and it will make a noise. Next we
had whaea chanella what group two was making with her was headbands.

After all It was lunch and again we had our own lunch. When lunch was finished we
were not allowed in to play outside and straight after that we did two more activates for
the day. The next activate we did was our tukutuku panels now this was a bit tricky for
me because i've never done it  and never seen anyone do it. But it turned out that I was
pretty good at it. So moving on to star gazing this activate was pretty cool after we learn
about all of the Matariki stars we went on the ipads and looked for all the big stars.
FINALLY the dinner was ready what we had for dinner was beautiful shepards pie
with the best ever cabbage and the lovely plum pie with custard and cookie cream
ice-cream. Man i'll tell you now that cabbage was so good I had some for breakfast

Conclusion After that I would go back in to that day if I could just to eat that dinner
again and trust me you would to.

Speech recording

My Speech

I believe everyone should participate in sports:

every sports is an active sport. No matter what it is it will always be active. Did
you know Sports has been around before jesus christ was born, dont you think
that was a while ago. Also did you know most sports could help you find knew
friends that you haven't met before. How I met most of my friends was from
different types of sports. I even made a new friend just the other day from playing
rugby league.

Did you know sports will make you healthy and fit. When you play sports that
means you don’t have to sit inside watching tv. Im basically saying sports makes
you play outside. Also sports makes people happy and proud of themselves to
get to the point they want to, and they should be. There is a couple of people that
don’t have feelings for sports at all. Don’t you think that's weird? I mean sports gets you going. When you are not playing sports, you might be inside eating whatever you want because you are bored and have nothing to do. Did you know you could die young if you are unhealthy. That's why im saying play sports and make you family very proud of you. don't be lazy.

At the first recorded Olympic Games in 760 BC there was only one event, a
footrace. Later Games included other events such as wrestling, boxing, discus,
javelin, and jumping.

Basketball is an amazing sport, one of the best in my opinion. Did you know
Michael jordan was the greatest of all time (GOAT) and back in his high school
they use to call him Magic after Magic johnson. You could turn out to be the
greatest of all time if you work hard, try your best and never give up.

I believe you can become famous by playing sport. Not playing sport would make
you become a  person who is fat and lazy.

if you train hard and play sports it would be a dream come true for you guys.

Do you want to be famous or fat and lazy? So get off the chair and play a sport.
