Month: September 2022

On the 28th of September, we had ag day. There were a lot of animals in the school and a lot of creations. We had lots of games like well-barrow races gumboot throwing and volleyball. There was also a parade for the animals and a pig won but it had to stay in the truck. I made a lama out of an ice cream container and cups it took a while to make it, but my cousin made a spider that shot webs and got first place. We also decorated some cupcakes and at the end of the day, I munched my cupcake. We made some haiku poems my one was about dogs.

Today we went to cross country in Pukepoto. We were all in different age groups I was in the 9 years group. I placed 11th but I need to improve my running by practicing running.

 

June’s life story

 

 

 In 1972 June went to Ahipara school but it looks way different because she went to Ahipara school in 1972. They could buy one-cent lollies.  She had a photo of her and her brother and they only had 6 classrooms.  If they didn’t do their work they would get the belt or the bamboo stick from the Principal, but she was a good girl. 

 

Her dad died from cancer. They had a lot of games back then like rugby, netball, bullrush, marbles, and softball.

 

They only had two t.v shows. June got to go swimming because the river was behind her house so she could just walk there, then she went to Intermediate too.  

At Ahipara School they had people come and had some special tools to cut barrels in half so you could turn them into a bath, it could be turned into many different things.
