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.

School Holidays

These holidays have been terrific! We have had some really warm weather. My twin sister and I had our friends to stay over. It was so warm outside so we slept in our big family tent. We were all super excited and didn't get to sleep until 2 o'clock in the morning. The next day Mum took us to the Olympic Pools it was great fun there because they had an obstacle course floating on the water. We spent 4 hours at the pools we didn't want to get out of the water because we were having a blast!
It was still really warm so Mum took us to captain Morgans for some ice-cream and some time at the beach before dropping our friends off at home. We made great memories these school holidays.

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.
