The Snowman

I crept into the cold garage and opened

the freezer.As soon as I lifted the lid opened,

I saw a snowman.He showed me a picture

of his home I saw a snowman wearing a

top hat.I saw shoes on the boy.I saw a

button on a snowman and saw a kid in a house. The snowman walked out of the

door and started to run after him I

his hand and we flew into the clouds

to go see santa in the forest.

Keep Mangonui Ataahua

Keep Mangonui tidy and clean of rubbish. Whenever I have rubbish I put my litter Mangonui is a beautiful place .It was named after a big shark and it is a special place to live. I think we should keep in the bin.If I don't it might float down the drain and into the sea. Fish might eat it and die. Then we might eat the fish and we die.

A hundred year ago on the pacific ocean was a man called moehuri .

He sailed from Hawaiki on his waka.When he saw and he did a karakia .

A big shark came and helped him.That's how mangonui got its name.

Moehuri  lived on Rangikapiti pa and had lots of babies.

They made houses and planted kumara. Moehuri sunk the waka and it
became a home for the shark.
It was a tapu place

One sunny day, my family decided to go to the pools in Awanui.

We got ready and packed the car and then we got in.

We got into our togs, then we drove to the pools. We jumped in
the pool.  There were diving flippers and there were goggles.
We jumped in the water.

I had a good day because I like swimming.

Rona

Once upon a time there was a lady called Rona and a dad and two children.They lived on

pa by a lake.The lake was big as a giant you could see another island in the distarce

Rona was a very angry lady.One day the dad said” We are going fishing tonight ,so when we get back we want some hangi because we will be hungry”.  She was cross because she had to make the hangi by herself. Rona ran out of water then she stubbed her toe on a rock and she said ‘’pokohua!’’.

How to name a dog

I see seagulls splashing like dolphins. I hear waves crashing
onto the  rocks. I feel the nice smooth water on my hands.
Smelly rotten bait and diesel from boats fill my nose.  I see
road that cars are driving on today as they went too the jetty.

The best part of me
