Mitchell Athletics Day 2015 Pt England School.

Hikianalia is the best house colour because we win every year. Our name was Takitimu but we changed it to the boat Hikianalia. Takitimu is the colour yellow. Yellow is the colour of the sun. The Sun is Strong and Hot to blow your face up. Our house colour was the best house colour than all the other house colours. We won every year and we got the best people to win.

On Friday the 13th November 2015 was Athletics Day. I rushed to School and got changed into my Yellow T-Shirt and Black Shorts. I was so excited cause I knew we were going to win again like every other year. I ran into the classroom and put clothes away and we left to the courts.

I was in the Year 5 boys. We went to go do relays. We walked down to the bottom field. At the bottom field were Obstacle Courses and heaps of other stuff. When we went to do relays we had these batons to hold. We had to run to the middle and pass it to that person then that person has to pass it to the person at the end and it keeps on going. We lined up in 5 lines. Then we started. I was at the back of the line waiting for my turn. 3 minutes later it was my turn. I was so nervous I but could do it. My friend Andrew passed me the baton. I ran as fast as I could to the middle. I passed it to Jonathan and Jonathan ran to Tom at the end. Tom ran to me and passed it. Then i ran back to the start and passed it to my Friend Simon. I was so tired after that. We kept on playing until Mr Jacobsen made this noise with the siren. It was really Fun.  We got 50 points. All the other teams got 40,30,20 and 10 points.


It was time to change over. We walked up the bottom field to the top field.  We were going to do Running. I liked Running. I saw 8 straight lines on the side of the field. The first 8 boys went to go line up then we lined up behind them. Mr Burt had this really big wooden thing. He said On your mark, get set and Go.
The first 8 boys ran really fast until they got to the end. I was really scared i was going to trip over or something. Then i saw my mum smiling at me. I wasn’t scared anymore i was now getting excited. Then Mr Burt said On your mark,get set, GO and clapped the wooden thing together. I sprinted as fast as i could. My mum was cheering on the side i ran and ran. I came 2nd to last but my mum was still proud of me. Then i ran again after the last 8 boys. I ran again as fast as i could. I 6th or 7th i think and my mum hugged me. I was so proud of myself even though i never came 1st,2nd or 3rd.


Then it was time to go home. My uncle and aunty came to watch as well. I was proud of my sisters too. They all came 1st in their races. I loved Athletics Day.

Fijian Coup

Long time ago in 1879 in Fiji came Indians. Indians sailed all the way from India to Fiji. The Indians came to Fiji to work on the Sugar Plantations. No one in Fiji did it. So the Indians did it. They planted the Sugar Canes from 1879-1916. The Fijians decided for the Indians to stop working on it in 1916. The Indians lived in Fiji and became Fijian Indians. Later on in the years they were celebrating religious festivals in Fiji. Like Diwali,Holi and birthdays of Hindu gods and Muslim festivals too. The native people of Fiji were Canibals from 1801 - 1900. Christianity came to fiji in 1900. The native people call Jesus Jisu and worshiped god. In Suva City the Indians worshiped Ganesha the elephant god,Lakshmi the god of peace and other gods for Muslims like Allah and their prophet Mohamed. Then in around the 1980s their was the Fijian Coup. The Fijian Coup was about Indians. Indians wanted to take over Fiji. All the Fijians got all their army all their guns and were killing hundreds of Indians. Indians were fighting back too with their guns bombs it was so dangerous. Fijians did not want all of their false gods in their country. They did not want them in Fiji. Some Indians took over some Fijians and told them to stay. Other countries did not allow Fijians to come to their country either. My Mums Uncle was in the Fijian Army with my grandpa. My grandpa died when my mum was a little girl. Once we went to Fiji and visted his grave. Anyways my mums uncle stayed behind in Fiji. Lots of them were ruled by the Indians. Up in Vanua Levu hundreds of people were still canibals. Even today they still carry on with the Fijian Tradition. Back then in the 1800s if an Indian came to try rule over their Island the natives would get their big sharp stick they kept in the Village and would kill them and eat them. Today Indians still live in Fiji and the Fijian Coup still goes on but all the Fijians still stay and rule in Fiji.

Mitchell Cindy In Da House Review

Mitchell - Reflection/Cindy In Da House-Review
(Extension Work).

On the 22nd-24th of september was our School Production Cindy In Da House. It started at 7:00pm every night and finished at 8:00pm. Each ticket cost $5 each for 1 person.

It was the story about Cinderella but it was G.I styles. At the end Cindy became best friends was Josh. He was the captain of the rugby team. Josh was her best friend instead of a prince and Instead of a glass slipper it was Cindy’s Jandal. Cindy stayed with her step aunty and her cousins. It was so cool.

Review: What i liked about Cindy In Da House is there was Acting,Dancing and Singing. It was so fun. What i did not like about it was nothing. I liked the whole production. I would give it 10/10.
