RICEBALL CHALLENGE

Kia Ora, today I will be sharing what I have done in "Food Tech". On Friday last week we had a challenge, the challenge was called "The Rice ball challenge" you basically needed to make your own rice ball without any help from a teacher. My friend and I competed to see which rice ball was going to be the best. We started making the rice ball and kept on looking at the recepie and the steps on how to make one. After we finished making the rice ball it was finally time to eat it. First of all I added soy sauce to the rice ball so it would be a bit salty, I took a big bite and I thought that it was very yummy I could taste the ingredients but I tasted more of the chicken and the carrot the rice ball was really yummy with the soy sauce I poured in. 

ATHLETICS DAY REFLECTION

Kia Ora, in this blog post I will tell you some things and what happened in Athletics Day, I will tell you by answering the questions written by our PE teacher.

How did you like athletics day? I liked athletics day because I like doing sports,

What did you do? the events I chose for athletics were High Jump, Long Jump, 400m sprint, 100m sprint and Shotput.
Were you happy with your results? I was happy with some results like when I came first in 400m and 100m sprint and came second in highjump.

What did you learn? I learnt a little bit of stuff when I did long jump. Because I didn't know that you need to jump starting from a line.

What could be done differently? Nothing really

Tevita's unexpected TRIP

Hello readers today I will tell you what I have done today this week. We had a chance to write a story about an image that the teacher has shown. Down below is my piece of writing I hope you enjoy reading it!

Rocky tall mountain reaching out on the blue high sky. As the leaves on the trees were blowing in the wind. As I sweep my eyes across to the left, the beautiful horizon came in sight. The ocean flowed as it carried the boats. And there was Tevita on a helicopter and amazed at the view of what he saw.

Tevita was a very kind man. He has a successful business for 16 years. He has dark brown curly hair, you'll be stunned as you look straight onto his eyes. Tevita decided to have a trip with his wife once for a while. He decided to fly on a helicopter with his wife around New Zealand.

Then something unimaginable happened. The once white clouds turned grey, rain soon came dropping out of the sky, the clouds whirled in the sky, blue sparkling light was in the middle of the clouds. Tevita and his wife's eyes were filled with horror.Before they had knew it they were on a middle of a storm.

Lighting struck at the back of the helicopter. Smoke came rising out of the helicopter, all you there was to hear was the sound of the couple shouting with fear. The pilot didn't make a sound he was fearless. The pilot landed the helicopter with skills, and the couples screaming faded away.
