Powhiri

Yesterday we did a Powhiri with room 18 because Mr Cotrell is Maori  Before we did the porwiri miss garland and Mr Cotrell gave us a talk about Powhiri I learned heaps when we went and practiced. Some of it felt a little weird. When we had to watch the boys do the wero  When you are sitting down you a not aloud to smile or laugh. I found it hard not smile when it was the Wero I held it in but I felt like bursting out laughing. The wero is a type of challenge if you laugh or smile it is disrespectful for there culture if you laugh or smile you will get your head chopped off. Some words in Maori are hard for me but some words are quite easy. I learned heaps about a powhiri and heaps of Maori words. We all had to be in a waiata while the room 18 watched us

The Apple Tree Dilema

Blood

One, two ,three fifteen cracks my new record on my scooter because our gardener was mowing the lawns. I was seeing how many cracks I could go over but that time.  I crashed into the painful  footpath and grazed both my knees and my elbow the concrete felt  as hard as hard rock it also so felt like my arms had fallen into one million pieces it stung so bad. When I fell I began to cry loudly  our gardener came over and helped me to the back door and went and got my mum the our gardner returned to doing the lawn mowing. Blood was dripping from my knee it a little faster but it always slowed down again. I sat down on the deck my elbow was now bleeding tiny drips the drips got bigger. I dabbed both my legs and my elbow my mum was next to me on deck when I dabbed  it felt like a million bees stinging me it it really hurts they were both still bleeding but  not that much my elbow had stopped mum got a plaster for my elbow.Then we moved inside onto the couch. My hand were sore to my knees slowly stopped bleeding. My mum got me to plasters for both my knees. Soon we didn't sting. But they were still really saw for a little bit.

Volcano

OUCH! the lava’s steam is getting hotter and hotter the steam Its burning my feet I think my feet are burning off like roast pork on the BBQ. Just then the lava starts to bubble I got a little bit of one of the popping bubbles in my mouth yuck it tastes like burnt  toast disgusting I also got a little bit of rock  in my mouth from the side of the volcano a little crunchy. Bang! Crash! my ears were ringing like snakes hissing I think an Eruption was coming .Sorry if you can’t hear me my name is M.P.E how I got here fell into the the volcano crater  when i was doing my weekly check on the volcano.
BOOM! the volcano  erupts. Sadly I’m still in the volcano I looked up the sky was a dark shade of black I was still on my little ledge. The smell was getting really strong the smoke smelt like a burning rotten eggs. It was getting harder to breath the smoke. I tried climb but the rock was too  slippery. More rock got into my mouth this time it tasted slugs on burnt toast.

Night Time Mayhem

Mummy cries my little sister I turn the peter rabbits key mmmm goes the rabbit pippi go to sleep sleep i was getting as bored as just hanging upside down to I’m dizzy pippi finally shuts her eyes but i know she is only pretending.  I sing her a song but she is still not asleep my head is spinning as fast as a Roller coaster. She begins to talk oh no she kicks her blankets to end of her cot I pull them back what a night she is nearly asleep I creep out but she hears me what a disaster I go back. I pat her tummy as soft as a bunny's fur she slowly falls asleep now and then she talks to me tilda are you still there yes I say as quiet as a mouse. I slowly stand up as quietly but the bars shake and her eyes move she saw me o dear I lie back down soon she is asleep I waited a few minutes they went by quietly and slowly crept out of the room peace at last tilda she calls oh no I say back I go all over again’’ I’m coming I say’’.
