Diary Entry 2

My first day

lets start off by me being i'm my bed and suddenly the light was switched on and the sound of my Mums voice screeching at me to get up and that's when the day began. I managed to pull myself out of bed to get dressed then there was a load thump,I looked up to see two black eyes staring at me then a slight meow coming from a white figure that was standing on my desk waiting for a proper greeting. and of course,it was Luna/cat and before she had a chance to jump on me,I slowly took a step back and carried on getting ready to go. I finished up packing and then all of us headed off to the airport.

Once we got to the airport we said our goodbyes to dad and my sister and then we headed to drop our luggage of to the check in and then headed off to wait for the plane to come. After a while on the speaker it said that our flight was being delayed for 20 minutes which I was still happy about because there was free WiFi so I could play my games on my phone. 20 minuets past and there was another call saying that the flight would be delayed for another 30 minuets  because something about the engine of the plane was going wrong and that was sooo annoying but finally we boarded and we headed out to Auckland


When we arrived  my dads cousin picked us up and we went to Motat .At Motat there was a lot of cool things like old phones and fire trucks and then there was this arcade thing that you played pack man on and space invaders and donkey Kong so we played on that for a while. After that there was this huge lamp thing that had lots of photos on it and you could add your own photo to that collection of photos on the lamp thing.Then we looked at how they would send messages  in the old days. After that we went to get lunch from the cafe they had there and the food was delicious. After that we went and looked at the old firetrucks they used to have. After that it was time to explore part two of Motat and to get there you could take your car and drive or you could take the tram for free. So we ended up taking the tram to the second part. Once we got there there was this huge building with lots of planes and computers and stuff that you would see at the Air Museum. soon after we left and went back on the tram to the car and then drove home. When we got there we made a list of we needed to get for the supermarket and then we went and got groceries and after we had tacos for tea and that's is we made the beds and now I am writing this.

Diary Entry 1

For the next six days I am going to be in Auckland and I thought why not share the experience with you.Each day i'm going to be writing a diary entry about the things I have done on that day. Today we haven't left yet but I still wrote an entry anyway:D

Diary Entry One

The Day Before

First of all Tomorrow I am going to Auckland and I'm nervous about going
on planes but I am excited but also sad because i'm going to miss my
friends but worst of all i'm going to be stuck with my sisters and and my
mum for a six days.

But before anything else let me tell you the real reason we are going.
So were going because I really wanted to go and see Ed Sheeran at
his concert but was soooo disappointed when I found out that he
wasn’t coming to Christchurch but that wasn’t going to stop me from
going.In the end we decided between Dunedin or Auckland and we
ended on agreeing on going to  Auckland which I was still very
happy about. Luckily I had been saving up enough money to pay for
me to go, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to go.

I'm Just so excited we are going to be doing so many cool things
there like the zoo,cat cafe,Motat museum thing,Rainbows End,
and going to Rangitoto island and Devonport and of course we
get to catch up with family while we are up there.But  best of all
we get free accommodation because we are staying with someone
and she has two dogs! And also how could I forget the ED SHEERAN CONCERT!!!!

I think i'm going to leave this entry Here but I am so
excited and I will be writing more entries each day bye.

Tour Of New Zealand Day One Task One

Today we have started a activity that we are doing for the whole week. Our topic is new Zealand and our WALT is to learn more about new Zealand so today's task was about Auckland  and here are the activity that we did.

 Our first task was to Read about the people of New Zealand and then choose three interesting facts to post on your blog. The facts had to be written in our own words.

Activity One

Fact one

I found out that the maori people voyaged for thousands of miles across the pacific ocean  in small canoes that were built to go sail over the ocean.

Fact two

New zealand's european pioneers were also brave,strong and independent. Before building farms and buildings they had to clear the land which is a hard and dangerous activity. And with new zealander having no protection meant that  the elements forced the young new zealanders to become tough and multi skilled.

Fact three

Kiwis have been discovering and inventing things. Many of the things we have created were made in a backyard.even though the frozen meat, the Hamilton jet boat and the bungey jump are the most famous ones there are many others.
