First day of tech in 2013

Our first day of tech for 2013 at Tamaki College was awesome. When we first got there we had to sorted into groups again because there so many of us, and when we got sorted I was in food tech with my best friends which was fun.

 So we went off to food tech and the first thing we had to do was to put on an apron and wash our hands, then we had to go and choose a bench to cook at. Miss Heka, our food tech teacher, told us that we were going to cook potato pizzas which sounded weird to me, after that we went to work and started getting our ingredients and equipment.

Some of our ingredients were hot potatoes, sweet chili sauce, butter, mince, milk, oil, and water, we had to cut the potatoes in half and scoop it out and put it into a bowl, add the milk, butter and water, and then put your frying pan on and put the oil in and the mince and sweet chili sauce. After the mince is cooked you put it inside the bowl of mash potatoes and mix it around, then you tip the it into your potatoes skins and put it on an oven tray and put it in the oven. A couple of minutes later you take it out put cheese on it and eat it, and when I took a bite of my potatoes pizza it was delicious, after that we went back to school and did our normal work.

This is a music clip that Kimberly, Jouan and I made on the first week of school. We had to sing a song and then make it into music clip which was really fun because we used a microphone that looked like a fake one but when you pushed the red button it records what you say, and you can listen to it again and again.
Hope You Like It.

Family Outing

Last week on Wednesday morning my family and I went to P.t England beach because it was a hot sunny day. When we first got there we saw alot of people walking on the beach, going fishing and jumping off the rock and doing big bombs in the water.

Then we had some fish and chips from the Pt England fish and chip shops and it was yummy,
we also had some fizzy drinks with our lunch. So my family and I went for a swim and we had a competition for who could swim out as far as we could and I was the winner, only because I was holding on to my rugby ball but know one noticed. After swimming my sisters and I started digging a deep hole into the sand, when we were finished I went in the hole and  it came up to my knees.

Next we covered ourselves with sand and just laid there relaxing, after a few minutes we had to go home because it was getting a bit late, so we got ourselves dressed and went back home. It was a really good and sunny day and the best thing about the beach is that you can have a really good time with your family and lie under the hot sun, and also playing sports!

' Lollipop Moments'

A Lollipop Moments is when you do something nice for someone else and make them feel happy. For example if you ask your mum if she needs help with the washing and she says ‘yes’ then it makes her feel happy because then she doesn't have to do it herself instead.

There was also a clip that Miss King showed us of  how Drew Dudley helped a man change a woman's life. The woman was scared to go to University but then her luck changed, there was a man giving out lollipops to everyone and when the man gave it to another man he said “ Give this lollipop to the lovely woman next to you” and he was scared to do it but he loved her and so he gave her the lollipop.

The main message about the clip is to be a capable leader and showing everyone your respect and your personality, and doing small things can make a big difference to everyone.
