Parihaka

This week we are learning about  Parihaka.

The soldiers came and they had guns and swords. The kids were singing and dancing around. The women had baked bread and gave it to the soldiers. The soldiers felt guilty because the Parihaka people did not have guns and did not fight back. The soldiers took the men to jail. When they got out they rebuilt the village.

Dumplings

Today Rooms 1 2 and 3 are making dumplings. Don´t you love that smell? Itś so nice don´t you think? In the dumplings we put beef mince, carrots, spring onions and sesame oil. We put the mixture in the middle of the dumpling skin on the not floured side. Then we put some water around it. Next we squished it around the outside so the mixture stayed inside. After that, the Mandarin teacher fried it. The I dipped mine in sweet chilli sauce. I loved it.
Here are the photos I took.

Climate Change

We are learning how to structure our writing.
What I found hard  - Punctuation
What I found easy - typing 

What is climate change? Climate change and global warming are different. Global warming is the process of our planet heating up. Climate change is the effect that the warmer temperature has like having more storms, wind and sunshine.

The Earth has warmed by an average of 1C in the last century, and although that might not sound like much, it means big things for people and wildlife around the globe.

Unfortunately, rising temperatures doesn’t just mean that we’ll get nicer weather - if only! The changing climate will actually make our weather more extreme and unpredictable. 

As temperatures rise, some areas will get wetter and lots of animals could find they’re not able to adapt to their changing climate.

Sploosh!

Amazon Rainforest Wildfires

We have been learning about the fires in the Amazon Rainforest.
I enjoyed finding pictures of the animals that live in the Amazon Rainforest.
I found it hard finishing on time.
Next time I would not copy and paste. I would use my own words.

The Amazon Rainforest is home to thousands of animals, insects, and plant species. This rainforest is so beautiful and rich with vegetation that it is known as the 'lungs of the Earth.' It got its nickname because of the abundance of vegetation it contains, which takes carbon dioxide out of the air and releases fresh oxygen for us to breath. The Amazon Rainforest actually produces 20 percent of the world's oxygen.
There have been 72,000 forest fires between January and August. The fires can be seen from space. The fires are killing animals.

St Mary MacKillop

St Mary MacKillop
Last Thursday we went to Mass. This was a special Mass for Saint Mary Mackillops feast day.
Who is Saint Mary MacKillop?
She is a saint. Australia's first Catholic Saint
What did St Mary MacKillop do?
She travelled Australia and New Zealand and helped kids by teaching them about God and teaching them to trust in Jesus.
How did Mary Mackillop become a saint?
In June 1995 Mary MacKillop was beatified by Pope John Paul II. A woman claimed that her cancer had disappeared after praying to Mary Mackillop through prayer. This is the Miracle that Pope Benidict needed to be able to recognise Mary Mackillop as a saint. Mary was canonized October 2010. Canonized means to declare a dead person to be a saint.
