Writing From The Lifeguard Perspective.

It had been a wild day. A hot wind had blown angry grey clouds across the sky, and the waves seemed unsettled and agitated. The lifeguard had watched the surfers pitting their skills against the swell, pulling out just before the waves peaked and crashed down upon them. He was captivated by the way the ocean stretched out into the distance, the way the swell keep rolling in, wave after unstoppable wave. The sun was starting to dip towards the horizon, but the temperature was still uncomfortably hot.

He saw a boy rushing down to the sea. It looked like the waves were bigger than he expected. As the boy was walking in, a huge wall of water was rushing towards him to crash down on him. The lifeguard divided into the sea looking for the boy. It was very hard because waves was crashing up and down. But the boy was lucky because the wave rolled him back to the sand.

Kabbadi

Kabbadi is a game that was invented in the country of India. It is a contact sport based on wrestling. It use to be only played in India, but now in these days it is also played in Maldives and Pakistan.  

How many players- You will need a team but at least more than four. Once you have done that you will need to put 4 people on. And same for the other team. 

How to play- Once you have people on you would have to send one person from your team to go tag another person on the other team and you have to try and make to the other side. While the person you touched has to try and tackle you before you can go back to you side. 

Where to play- The best area would be to play Kabbadi on the field.  

Happy Birthday Lesieli!

I would just like to say "Happy Birthday To My Great Friend Lesieli".  She is an amazing person and today is a very great day to celebrate. 

She is a very caring, kind and funny friend. I love her to bits and may God bless you more and more for many years to come. Happy Birthday!

Weekly Quiz ( The Whangarei KiwiYo frozen yoghurt shop.)

The topic for this article is, (Why was the Whangarei KiwiYo frozen yogurt shop in the news last week? 

Well did you know that KiwiYo is one of an amazing place to go to on special occasions like your birthday and party's and more.  

Well the reason why the KiwiYo in Whangarei was in the news last week was because the boss of the KiwiYo in that branch heard that one of his employees was greeting customers in Maori like "Kia Ora". 

Later on we heard that, that employee quit after she had first ever got told of that she wasn't allowed to greet customers like before. She had quit from that job.  

Well from my perspective of that problem is that the boss is being very stricted. Why can't he let his employees greet customers the way they want to.

Writing (Adding Detail).

Rimu heard a voice saying Rimu. He heard something tap on the window. Rimu rolled over. He still felt sleepy. He couldn’t figure out why he could hear his name. He didn’t think it could be hail because it was the middle of summer.
He sat up, and looked. It was early morning. He could just make out a shadow, which leant forward and rapped again, louder this time.
“Rimu! You deadhead. Wake up!”
Rimu groaned. Ollie! He would have preferred hail.


Changed in This Below!


As Rimu was sleeping in bed, suddenly a voice started saying “Rimu, Rimu.” Something on the window started taping. Then Rimu rolled out of bed. His is strength was very weak because he still felt sleepy. He couldn’t figure out why he his ears are listening to his name being called in the middle of his sleep. Doubts started appearing in his mind and thinking it could be hail but, why would it because it was the middle of summer.

His eyes open and looked out the window, it was early in the morning. He could just make out a shadow, which leant forward and rapped again, but louder this time.
“Rimu! You deadhead. Wake up!”
He groaned, Ollie!  Rimu would have preferred hail instead.

Ki-O-Rahi.

Ki-O-Rahi is a game well known in New Zealand but not just New Zealand it is well known also in Europe and France. Did you that that the background of Ki-O-Rahi is a legend. The legend is about a man named Rahi-tutaka-hina and his wife Ti Ara-kura-pake-wai.

It was that one day when Ti Ara was gathering plants in the forest, the patupaiarehe (Fairy people who live in the forest), carried her off. And it was Rahi job to look for her and save her. As he was determined to find her he faced many obstacles.

But at the end all things sorted out with Rahi and patupaiarehe. And Rahi got his wife back. And in the obstacles he had a k
