WLJ: BFG, Activity 2

Winter Learning Journey: BFG

Week 1, Activity 2

Today's Winter Learning Journeys activity is about a famous author named Ronald Dahl but he wasn't just a author he was also a British writer, fighter pilot, spy and inventor. He is also best know because he writes a lot of funny and enjoyable books we all love to read including Charlie & the chocolate factory, Matilda, The Twits, Fantastic Mr Fox and much more. The book today we are focusing on is the BFG (Big Friendly Giant). 

What we have to do for part of today's activity is write a character description of the BFG that includes at least 10 descriptive words and a drawn picture of the BFG to go along with the 10 or more words. Hope you enjoy...

Character Description

The BFG is a Big Friendly Giant. He wears long ,green trousers, white baggy shirt and a old, brown sleeveless jacket over it. He also has big, floppy ears and he is a hundred times as tall as a giraffe. He is very old but really is a really great friend to have. He enjoys catching dreams and putting them in kids rooms during night time with his new friend sophie. He has a really bubbly and friendly personality that I think everyone would like, I would love to have a friend like him. Here is my drawing as well..

Sunday Funday- 5/7/20 Holidays!!

SUNDAY 5/7/20- Breakfast, Exercise, Feast, Church, Rest!

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. Today I'll be telling you what I did today, which is the first Sunday of Term 2's Holidays. I'll be doing a lot of these types of Blog Posts where I tell you what I do on the Holidays, so get ready to read what my family and I get up to on the Holidays. Feel free to also make 1-4 blog posts a week about what you do on the Holidays as well or even try out the Winter Learning Journey which is coming out soon. Now back to what I did today! 



It was a normal early morning Sunday, what I first did was wake up, eat breakfast with my Mum, sister (Katherine), brother (Joshua) and Nana. After eating breakfast I went and brushed my teeth, It is really important to brush your teeth everyday in the morning and night. Once I finished brushing my teeth, Katherine, Joshua and I decided to practice our rugby skills on the reserve next to Pt England.

First we did some running, after that we practiced kicking the Rugby Ball, then passes and lastly more running. To wrap it up, Katherine and I did some shuttles using the Goal Posts, it was kinda hard but we both gave it a go. Doing these sort of stuff with my family is the best thing in the world, we always have a wonderful time, doing the activities we love like sports, cooking or even watching TV. What was your favourite thing you did with your family today near the mornings?

After doing that until 11:40, we walked back home and went for showers because we were about to go to my Mum's Uncle's House because my Mum's cousin has just got married and we were going to have a feed and meet the bride and her family. The feed started at 2:00 but my mum, aunty and Nana already started preparing some Tongan Food for the feed at the House. Tongan Food is the best in the world (Not going to lie), I'm getting hungry again by just thinking about it. There were Puaka (Pig), Taro, Ota'Iki (Raw Fish), Lu Sipi (Lamb, onions wrapped inside taro leaves), Otai (Types of drink where you can add fruits, Coconut, canned pineapple, watermelon and much more). There were a lot of other food as well. SO YUM!! 

After the feed, we had to go to church which started at 4:00pm, I went to the Tongan Church with my family. After going to church, we came back home, changed back to normal clothes and just rest and chill at home. We watched some movies together but some of us were still full and bloated from the feast. I enjoyed the whole day together with my family. This was still the first or start of our Holidays and I can't wait on what we do on the next few weeks. I'll make sure to blog it and share you what we do on the next few days of my Holidays. My question for you guys to answer is:

Make sure to also blog on what you did today, comment on other people's blogs, try out the winter learning journey and most importantly enjoy your holidays and help out your parents, grandparents or whoever looks after you at home. Thank You! :)

Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Happy Holidays- Term 2

Yay!!! It's that time of year everyone, yup Term 2 Holidays. I'm really happy to finally chill and spend weeks with my family and friends. I would like to appreciate and say a HUGE THANKS to all the teachers who have worked really hard in these 2 terms. We never had Holidays in Term 1 because of Covid and lockdown, but our teachers were there and did google meets with us students and did learning there. There were also some teachers who helped with Bubble School, you teachers really helped a lot with the students that had no one to look after them at home. THANK YOU SO MUCH TEACHERS. Once we came back from Lockdown and came back to school, there were some things that had changed like our classes, we had to be in our maths classes and have our own desks and space, we finished school at 2:30 instead of 3:00 and we had to sanitize more often at school. After weeks of getting use to the changes most things are coming back to normal, like sports, riverside and many other things. The thing that I was glad to come back to school is that we get to see our wonderful teachers in person and our friends, after hard work during Term 1 and 2 we have finally came to our Mid Term Holidays. My Highlight for Term 2 is getting to know our Maths Class a bit more and seeing my friends again after not seeing them during Lockdown.What has been your Highlight of this term? I would like to say to everyone to enjoy their Holidays, stay safe, make sure that your Family or parents know where you go at times, help do the chores at home and lastly stay kind and keep on washing your hands. HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!! :)
