How trees were created

How trees were created


Long long ago over 1,000 years ago Tane Mahuta was traveling across the land with his 6 brothers (Tu, .Taronga, Ruamoko, Rongo, Tawhirimatea and Humia). And then hears a message from someone creepy, he looks around but no one was there. He goes to talk to his mother about it and she said “it would be another god”. She senses thats its Tawhiri. “ Check on Tawhiri also see if it is him, if not, Sorry to waste your time”.

Tane mahuta went back that night to see what it was, but it wasn’t Tawhirimatea it was a tree the first tree Tane mahuta the tree was dying tane then rushed to his mother but before he started running to his mother he thought no I must save the tree before it dies he nels down next to the tree “now how do I save you little tree “ tane said

He touched the tree and it got better
He touched it again and it had grown into a big tree
He touched it again and it dropped billions of seeds on to the ground
He touched it again and then all the other trees grew.

Cape Kidnappers

Cape Kidnappers

Against my face
The sweet summers breeze,
Down the beach we went.

On the Quad,
Collecting mussels,
Everyone Enjoying their life.

Meeting the gannets,
Feeding them food,
Now going back,
along the track.

Now back at home,
Eating our muscles,
Back at,
Home sweet home.

Production

Production

I really liked doing the production because I was one of the people from room 19 and room 12 that got one of the parts . I really liked my part because it wasn't to easy and it wasn't to hard, the main things that I liked is that instead of just the classes on stage sing, we all sing. I liked the part that I have because I get to kiss my muscles. From the beginning I thought we would never be able to pull this off but every time we practice we get better and we get a step closer to performing I loved performing to the school and to all the parents that came. Thankyou to all the parents that came to watch us perform, We all loved having a little giggle every now and then. On the first night I was very nervous but from the second to the last I was so excited I just wanted to get out there and enjoy performing. All the practicing was getting me tired  And after I performed I was very tired. I’m still very tired but I wish we could do it over and over again .

Mount Taranaki


Taranaki used to live next to Taupo. Both Taranaki and Tongariro loved Pihanga and fought over her.Taranaki was beaten badly his cone was broken off the tip of his head,  his sides were gashed and almost broken to pieces. taranaki moved back underground and traveled down the Whanganui River to the coast. Taranaki left the  Whanganui River and entered the sea and headed northwest and Taranaki was led by a giant stone named Te Toka a Rauhoto. They surfaced to see Pouakai on the horizon. Diving again Taranaki followed the guide stone up the hangaataahua (stony) River. Taranaki resurfaced beside Pouakai. Te Toka a Rauroto flew eastward between Pouakai kaitake and then landed near the sea.

And there you go, there it the maori legend of Mount Taranaki came to stand where it stands tall today.
