Iwi unhappy with ocean sanctuary

The New Zealand government is aiming to establish a ocean sanctuary around the kermadec.

The sanctuary will contain 6 million birds of various species, 35 species of whale and dolphins, three species of turtle and 150 species of fish. Chairperson jamie Tuuta said that the government has ignored the impact the sanctuary would have on iwi fishing interests. 

Also the sanctuary would be off limits to commercial fishing and aquaculture, recreational fishing and fishing related tourism. Let me know what you think of this?  

My matariki breakfast

"Boring old fruit" i said to myself "no ones gonna like that" as i roll up into school with my pink chocolate ice cream container. Near the end of the term our school has been really keen on the matariki theme celebrating the maori new year. The school had set up a matariki breakfast for us to enjoy, everybody had to bring a shared meal. I was looking forward to all the nice tasty food that i was going to enjoy like pancakes sausages donuts and all the delicious meals.

 I thought my fruit was pretty boring considering all the amazing things that other people had brought. As i was walking out to play basketball i saw another teacher bring in nice crispy hash browns, my taste buds squirming all around my mouth wanting a taste of those nice hash browns. when the bell rang i raced to the classroom like a bolt of lightning could see all the nice juicy foods we had a lovely prayers then we were allowed to eat.The girls got up first then us boys raced to the delicous food i only grabbbed a pancake and i definetly put way to much golden syrup on my pancake. The slimey stiky stuff devoured my mouth my tastebuds were in disgust. And then i lost my apatite and could not eat anything else my stomach just could not take it. So then i just read. It was a great matariki breakfast and i loved it.




 

Cuz Te reo translations

I was learning about the maori language and how to translate it because it was my reading activity I found it difficult to find the write words that related to the book because i could not remember everything that huia and river did or said I enjoyed learning new maori words because it was very interesting finding out what the words meant in maori. Next time i would get better images because some images did not relate to the text
