prize giving

Prize giving was awesome it was thursday the 12th of december. And it was prize giving day i wasn't going to get any prizes but I went because I had an important role to play in Kapa Haka. 

We all entered the hall and A massive crowd was in front of me. I had to get to the back of the stage so I could get ready for the kapa haka performance. My heart was beating so fast. Ms Tito said it was my Tupuna getting ready.

On stage all i'm looking at is the exit sign and a massive crowd. We did our song and haka and got off the stage the crowd was cheering so hard. After we finished it felt like i was going to faint I put my shoes on and went to the hall.

Back into the crowd it was the year 7 awards i couldn't believe how much sports the year 7 played. I bet they're going to have a strong team for next year.

It was finally our turn to get on stage my heart beating again the girls dance first then where on at the end we all sit.

first day of school

It was a hot and blazing day and the sun was beating hard on my head. As I walk to school by my self I had five dollars to my self for my lunch but it was so hot I bought me a ice cream the school was just across the road. as I walked in to the class everyone stared at me like i was going to kill them I was the only brown person in the class the had ask me to tell my name to the whole class I was embarrassed I had said my name in a little squeaky voice and all the kids laugh at me I wanted to knock them out because they mocked my name.

Where i'm from

Where i'm from i can feel the wind blowing sand in my face as i walk down the path I see people laugh and play I see my family with a picnic basket and cousins with and old musket

I can see a sand fly getting scraped by the weather guy

Reflection

The angles I choose to put in my movie where close up mid shot cut in cut away extreme wide wide shot and a few more in my movie a song was playing in the background it was named poi e

There were a lot of expression in most of these shot there was also actors and emotion I had no animates in my movie most of my movie was pretty good and all of the pictures matched each other

Yes it was good but some of the footage was deleted so I did not get the whole thing finished my movie was 2 minutes and 34 sec long the message was about what we did up at Waitangi our purpose of going up was so other people know what kind of beautiful things that are up there

I think I did my best to conduct the pictures and music together

MLK and nelson Mandela

There are two very inspiring people I think about most of the time they are MLK and nelson Mandela.

Martin luther king and Nelson Mandela were a bit the same and what I mean by that. Is they were both working to get equality between white and black. And when they both did that they went to jail. they were both black so not many white people liked them.but on this journey of racism and violence they both made it to victory.

Nelson Mandela is a black person those lived in South Africa. Back in those days;1950 black people did not get to vote.When white people came along they decided to rule over the black people most black people became farmers and didn't get paid that much.

Martin Luther KIng In 1929 M.L.K was born in 1953 he got married to what he would of thought was beautiful in 1953 his got blown up at time I he said lucky I wasn't in there in 1963 he finally gave his speech about his dream it was a very inspiring speech to some people.

1981 protest

1 2 3 4 we don't want no racist tour I shouted the person on the side of me had a strong grip we were walking down to the hamilton stadium there was a massive barbed wire fence we had signs and banners some said stop the tour and many other we ran to the center of the field and sat there for ages well we were sitting there cans rubbish and heaps more other stuff we're getting throwing at me.

Get off the field you bloody wankers the rugby fans shouted at me still we held on with all my might but then the police came with their weapons so we made a shield with our banners and it worked it stopped us from getting hit stuff we're still getting thrown at me.

CROSS COUNTRY

yay People were screaming and shouting because today was cross country I was not prepared as the bell rang little kids were zooming past me everyone was lined up and ready to race there were four colors that people had to represent they were Tainui, Te arawa, Takitimu, and Matatua,

As we all lined up it was we started to get very hot some of us started to sweat and weren't even running we had to wait a very long time so the teachers decided to move under the tree the year 1 & 2 had already ran we had to ran the 7 & 8 had to run 3.5k

Finally it was our turn to run boom the siren went off and we gone like smoke the fields where muddy and it was hard to try and stay up when you get past it I had just finished my first lap and I at a good paste I was coming 7 to me that was a great start then all the fast people zoomed past me and I came 15th
