Hopefully my future career is to end up with me being a baker and make alot of new recipes of my own. I chose this as my future career because I have experienced it every Tuesdays of school, walking down to Tamaki College and going to my cooking class. We would make many yummy things like apple dutch cake, cookies and strawberry tarts.
Being a baker is a dream of mine and it would be awesome if I was to be a baker in the future. I have experienced it alot of times and I have made many mistakes making it as well. I would have picked up my mistakes and learn from it so I would make the right decisions next time.
The person that I look up to is Nigella Lawson, I watch her making her own recipes and I vison myself standing next to her and helping her make her muffins and brownies. I would really love to be a baker when I am old enough to get my own show and maybe someday, someone might look up at me and vision them standing next to me and helping me with my baking.

Athletics 2012
"Oh no!" I thought to myself as I was getting ready for Athletics. An annual sports activity that happens every year. It was a sunny Wednesday morning, birds singing and the sun in the sky, I woke up and as a looked at the clock it was almost 7:30am! I rush into my room, put my uniform on and quickly had breakfast. Athletics was held at Lloyd Elsmore park.
I ran down to school as quickly as I could and as I entered the school hall, I could see people scattered all around the hall. We waited and waited for the bus to arrive but still no bus. “SCREECH!!”, we heard the bus pull up and quickly hopped in the bus. I sat next to my friend Brooklyn, it wasn’t that long until we got there and we all got out a.s.a.p so we could look for a nice cool spot underneath the shade.
“ The first people to go to high jump is Huelo-Ata and Tui at 9:30.” Mr Barks said to us all as we were settled down in our space. I was really nervous so I went to go and stretch so I could feel more better than how I felt that morning. The clock struck 9:30 and so I had to go to the high jump mats to do high jump. Unfortunately I didn’t make it over the 4th one so I went back to have a rest because I had sprints in an hour time.
I had my morning tea and then Miss Va’afusuaga called me because some of my family members were here to watch me jump and sprint, I was really surprised. It was my turn to run so I went with Serena, my friend who also qualified for sprints as well, “Do your best!” I said to her and she said the same thing back to me. I ran my hardest and when we were at the finish line there was a muddle-up between the lanes and because 1 person went into another lane and wasn’t disqualified! So we raced again and I came 4th!

Manaiakalani Film Festival
“RING!” the bell went. As soon as I heard the bell go, I rushed off to the Street and got ready in my class lines. I was very excited to get out of school and go to watch the Manaiakalani film festival at Hoyts, Sylvia park. The whole school went but the years 1-6 went first and then the years 7-8. It was the start to my interesting day.
“ Come on people, lets go!” our teacher said to us students. As we walked through the car park and onto the footpath, I could see 3 buses waiting for us to hop on and go. “ Mrs Lagitupu, which bus are we going on??” We were going back and forward and deciding what bus we were going on.
“ Squeak!!!” The buses stopped. When I looked outside, I could see that we were at Sylvia park!! “ Yay! I can’t wait to see our Pt England movies at the film festival!!” I my friend whispered in my ear. I knew that there was going to be a variety of different movies.
As soon as we were seated in the cinema, the light went down and everyone started to cheer. The first movie that showed was a movie from Pt England and Tamaki Collage. It was called " The Real One Direction. . . . . . East side Styles!" It was very funny to watch because it went from year 6 students to Teachers, it was awesome!!!!
When the lights came on, everyone said "Ohhh!!" It was the end of the Film festival and I was even sad because I wanted to watch more cool films. I felt really tired and sad because it was very cool and I wanted to watch more. It was a very cool experience to watching all of those films.

Athletics
It all started with a sunny Thursday morning, blue skies and birds singing in the trees. I came to school in my house colour and it was Tainui a.k.a blue!! I could see sports gear all over the field, it was Athletics day!! The whole school had to participate. “ Good morning girls, nice to see you in your house colours!” Mr Jacobson said to us. It was a good beginning to the day.
I am 11 year old so I had to go with the 11 year old girls. Our very first activity was Javelin. As I anxiously walked up to take my turn, I pick up the javelin stick and threw it with all my might. As the Javelin stick flew out of my hand, I watched it whizz past in mid-air. “Thud!!” the javelin stick hit the ground and to my surprise I realised that I was coming second! “Yippy!” I said happily.
“Yay!” I shouted happily because our next activity was my favorite, High Jump! I was very excited! Miss King took high jump and the side that I jump from is my left because I am more confident on that side then on the right. I ran up to the mat and jumped as high as i could and I made it!! I was so relieved. But unfortunately no one won so we have to have a final when we can see who won.
“Our next activity is sprints.” Our teacher said. So we ran to the sprints and got ready to line up. Mr Jacobson was the teacher who took it and Mrs Flavel was at the end to write down who came 1st, 2nd and 3rd. “ On your marks, get set . . . . . . GO!!!” I sprinted as fast as I could and I came 2nd in the 75m and 100m sprint. I was so happy.
That day was very cool and when we finished everything we have a relay with all of the teachers, parents and kids. It looked fun but I wasn’t aloud to race because Miss Va’afusuaga already got all of the people. I felt really happy and relieved that Athletics was finished because I was really tired so I went home and had a sleep.

How to make a Polka dot Teddy bear
The things that you will need to make a Teddy bear is:
* A sewing needle
* Cotton
* Scissors* Cotton
* Felt Materials
* Paper and a pencil
* Stuffing ( to put in the teddy bear )
* Eyes to put on the teddy bear
* Polkadots and a bow
* Hot glue gun
Materials:
* Felt Materials
* Fabric
* Treads
* Stuffing
Instructions:
1. First you sketch a picture of a teddy bear on a piece of paper and then cut it out, you have to half the fabric so there is two piece of the fabric shaped as a teddy bear when you finish
2. Then you put the cut-out of a teddy bear sketch and put it on the piece of fabric and put pins through it, the pins are there to help keep the piece of paper still when you cut it out
3. Then you cut over the piece of paper and then take off the paper so the material looks like the sketch. Then you will have two pieces of material that is in the shape of a teddy bear
4. After that you will have to take one of the cut-out pieces and cut a little slit in the middle so you can put the stuffing in it
5. Then you will have to sew the two pieces together and when you finish you will have to turn the teddy bear inside out from the little slit so you don’t see the sewing marks in it
6. Next you will have to put the stuffing in through the little slit that we made earlier and then sew it up with a sewing needle and cotton
7. Finally you can cut out circles with the Leftover fabric and sew it on the teddy bear so it looks like a ‘Polka Dot Teddy bear’

My Favourite Toy
My favourite toy is a big, stuffed teddy bear because my grandparents brought me it on my birthday and when I was little, it would always be on my pram wherever I go. It looks like a big snuggly baby but it furry and fluffy and it makes me want to fall asleep. When squease the arm it will s remake a noise and my uncle said I would always laugh at it.
My favourite toy makes me feel sleepy because every time I go to sleep, I would snuggle it in my bed and my uncle would read me a story. It reminds me of my mum because she is so soft and cuddly.The best memory I have of my favourite toy is wherever and whenever I go somewhere, it would’ve been right behind me on my pram.
When I would fall asleep, it would be right there. I really liked my teddy bear when I was small because when I go inside, I would take it off of my pram and take it with my. It was like my little friend! I would always say to the teddy bear that I would take wherever I go. That it was I did from that day on. But until I came home one day from kindy, my bear was gone! My cousin came over and took it. I was really sad!
I didn’t know what to do because I wanted my teddy bear! I was really lucky because my grandma brought me a new one. But, it wasn’t like my old one and I was really upset. The next day my cousin came over and guess what she had in her hand, MY TEDDY BEAR!!!! I was so relieved because my teddy bear was alright, I never took my eyes off it again.
