Suprise From Meng Foon

Today the Mayor of Gisborne(Meng Foon) came in to our classroom with no warning and talked to us about the Hamanatua Stream Actions Speak Louder Than Words project and asked us what we were doing and why we were doing it. Our class is really lucky because we got to take a photo with him. Here it is:

My Time In Tahiti

A few weeks ago I went on holiday to Tahiti, but I didn't stay in Tahiti, I stayed on the island, Moorea. I had lots of fun there and did lots of cool things like swimming with sharks and stingrays and snorkeling with amazing fish.


 I wasn't that keen to go swim with the sharks but I was fine with the stingrays. But about 2 seconds later my dad said,"lets go swim with the sharks and stingrays", I was like, NO WAY. But my dad convinced me to jump in with the sharks because he described it really well, so we kayaked over. When we finally got there I had butterflies and was really nervous. But I got in. I couldn't believe I was doing this, sometimes I got scared so I just stayed by my dad.


Finally we got home and hanged out there for a bit. It felt way better to be on land and not swimming with the sharks. We got some real good photos and videos. Here is some of our photos.
