Hey Bloggers! How are you? In class at the moment, seeing as the year is coming to an end we are getting creative tasks and one of these was to create a superhero, I have so many more ideas for this task but I chose this idea. Meet Magma whose planet was destroyed by a wormhole and she now lives on earth:
Kia ora Bloggers! How are you? Recently in math, my teacher came up with a super fun challenge where we had to create packaging for chocolate. The teacher went around and gave us a small package of assorted chocolate. When we then opened it, I received mini Cadbury milk chocolate bars. Next, we had to design a net that could fit our chocolate inside it. Here's my net:
I then made it up and tied it up with a ribbon and this is what it looked like:
This challenge was super fun and I would love to do it again. Do you know what the shape I used is called? Have a brilliant day.

Kia ora Bloggers!! I know this is the third post today but have more to share. As you hopefully know by now, I have been looking at NZ culture and this involved taking a look at an old kiwi game called Ki O'rahi! This game is super fun to play and I put together a slide show with my friend to show you how to play...
Hey Bloggers!! What are you up to? If you saw my previous post you will know that we have recently been looking at Maori culture and part of Maori culture is a hangi, a hangi is essentially a huge meal that cooked underground. Almost like a barbeque but underground. We had to make a poster describing how the hangi has changed. My poster is a little bit- messy so I will type out what it says here then put a picture of the poster underneath.
Traditional hangi
The traditional hangi consists of a large hole in the ground filled with red hot rocks that were heated earlier. On top of these rocks, you place baskets filled with food. Next, you cover them with wet sacks then cover the sacks with the earth. Overall this entire process can take 7-8 1/2 hours (Including cook time) This is a long time to wait for a meal.
Modern hangi
The modern hangi takes a lot less time to prepare and way less effort saving you time, plus you are guaranteed a good mvveal. Overall technology has improved the way we create hangi making it more efficient

Kia ora bloggers!! How are you all? I haven't posted in a while so I apologize for that. For inquiry this term we are looking at countries, so to start off the term we are taking a look at New Zealand's culture, heritage, and traditions. Maori culture includes things like ideas, customs, and behavior this includes things like waiatas, hangi, etc. Heritage is things like our marae and ferns and our traditions are things like Matariki and hakas.
For this task we were given 3 slides to fill in, writing things about Tā moko, Korowai, and Kapa haka. A Tā moko is a traditional Maori tattoo, a Korowai is a cloak and kapa haka is a war dance of sorts. We had to describe how the tools, the design, and the usage has changed over time. This slide shows all of these changed.
Hey Bloggers, The holidays are over and I'm honestly sad to be back at school ahem.

Anywho school, we have been doing scriptwriting and me and my friends are writing a western film, I promise to post it when it's finished but for now, have a sample:
Kia ora Bloggers! How are you guys? It's finally the last day of term and I'm finally ready for the holidays, I have just finished handing all my due essays and stuff in. One of which was video essay on a genre of film, I chose to use film noir and I had a lot of fun finding out what sort of things make up the genre. Heres my video essay. What kind of genres to you like?
