Samoan Language Week

This week was Samoan Language Week. In Room 6 we learnt a lot about Samoa and the Samoan culture. We watched Cultural Hub clips about the Samoan alphabet, animals and body parts. Did you know that the Samoan alphabet has only 17 letters?. Also during reading time we did a scavenger hunt on facts about Samoa, we then searched the classroom for clues to complete our Samoan puzzle. We had experts teaching us greetings and phrases, our experts were Matila, Remy and Rosa.

Eden Albert Football

On Tuesday we went Eden Albert football zones, we played 5 games of football it was really fun but we lost 3 games and tied two. I learnt lots of cool tricks as well, we had a football coach that we called croc man because he wore crocs all the time. He was really nice. My favorite part was when I nearly scored a goal from half way. Here are some pictures...

Original and Personal Sin

In today's lesson in Religious Education we learnt about original and personal sin. Original sin is where you are thinking of do something in your head that tempts us.  Personal sin is where you do that thing that you were thinking about, like say if there was a donut in someones bag and you were really hungry and you just take it and eat it that would be a personal sin but if you were just thinking about it, it would be a original sin. 

Martin Luther King, Jr poster

Last term we learnt about growth mindset. We made a factual piece about famous people with a growth mindset and how they never gave up. I picked Martin Luther King, Jr because he was one of the greatest leaders because he fought for equality. There were lots of interesting facts like his birth name which is actually Micheal.
