Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela

Both Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King had the same dream. There dream was to bring harmony for black and white people and racial equality. They both suffered for trying to carry out there dream and trying there best to make the world fair.

Nelson Mandela was born in July 18th 1918. Back in the days in South Africa the black people couldn’t vote and they suffered because the white people had all the power and money. He went to jail for 27 years for opposing the government by making things equal. After getting released he found out that black people can vote and then he became president of South Africa. One of his speech’s was “A LONG WALK TO FREEDOM.”

Martin Luther King was born in January 15 1929. He was a leader in the african civil rights movement. The white people didn’t like what Martin Luther King was doing and so the white people decided to find out a way to get him arrested. Martin Luther King wrote a book and he was signing it and apparently got stabbed. He got assassinated in 1968.

These two great men worked so hard just to make their country a better place.. Their dream officially came true in the end. So Martin Luther King once said “I HAD A DREAM”. So in 1968 in April 4 Martin Luther king has passed away and Nelson Mandela is still alive. He is now 95 years old.

Visiting Samoa

Visiting Samoa

Walking in the huge Plane called Virgin Samoa with my school bag to carry with us I was so EXCITED!!! because I will be seeing my cousins that I haven't seen in a long time.. Looking towards the other exit on the other side all you can see is layers of chaires. As soon as I sat down I thought I was sitting away from my Parents but I was sitting with them.

Before the plane was about to go in the air three ladies showed us where was the life jackets and how to use them they also told us to read the manual right in front of you. So I grabbed it and started reading it, After looking at it it was time to go to Samoa. We are going to Samoa because my Grandpa Lemafa Mamoe past away. On the plane heaps on members on my dad’s side came on the same plane as us, that was pretty cool.

When we were in the air looking down we can see heaps of houses and it was a beautiful view. when we heard” we are arriving to Samoa in 4 hours and 15 minutes ” the captain said. So I fell asleep while my parents were listening to music. A few hours later I was time to eat they gave us taco with ham,lettuce,cheese,and bacon YUMMY!!!.

When we arrived to Samoa I was happy because we had a safe flight from New Zealand to Samoa ccchhee hooo. Walking down the steps it was getting really hot  we arrived at 10.30 pm wow that was a long trip. After getting our bags checked I saw my auntie Vanila with her 2 kids Leauina and Taufau I also saw my 3 cousins Shireen,Eneli and Barcelona I was so happy to see them so Eneli gave me a big hug.

When we arrived at Sataoa my dad’s village I quickly opened the door and ran towards my cousin Kisa Mamoe. After that Me,Kisa,Jvette and Tianna were playing Samoan knucklebone Ake.

After 2 days I was the service day for my Grandpa Lemafa Mamoe. We went on a Samoan bus to go to the Service and their we will see Grandpa. When I saw him I was crying when I touched my head it was cold and hard. After the Rev of the church done his speech it was time to go back to the church with Grandpa.

When we arrived in the church we were all crying while walking even the great Grandchildren as soon as we sat down it was hard to let it go. After that it was time to go back home to do the si’i with the ie Tonga which took hours. After everything was finished we finally got sleep.

On the next day it was the day when  Grandpa gets buried. He gets buried next to Grandma Taupo Mamoe. When we arrived at the church all the Sons and daughters did their speeches about Grandpa. After the whole thing finished it was time for him to get buried. I wish if I went but I was not allowed because it was raining.

Grandpa manuia lou malaga Hope you have a safe trip to Heaven and as always your heart will be in our hearts <3

Raeleen and Sisilia Little Red Riding Hood Problem



Similarities                                                
Contrast
They had the same name
She had a mobile
Both Girls
Riding hood zoo
Both had red velvet
Cheesecake

One particular day

Her Grandmother was eaten

She was sweating

Wood Hunter wasn't there





Problem:
Little Red had a fiery Temper and she wouldn't do the things that her parents told her to do. So they had to bribe her with treats so she would do the smallest things. On particular day her mother told her to go and visit her grandmother who lived a couple of kilometres away in a suburb called riding hood. Riding hood was on  the other side of the Pine plantation and the quickest route was through the pines.After complaining for half an hour,little red took the cheesecake from her mother and set off through the plantation.She was nearly there when a wolf in the pines before, she thought that is must of escaped from the zoo.So she called the zoo on her mobile and was informed that the wolf indeed escaped. After talking about the wolf they asked her if she can keep an eye on the fugitive until someone came out to collect it. Then she will earn a reward from the zoo keepers. But the zoo keepers said make sure that the wolf was okay before handing it over. The wolf ate the Grandma.

Wolf? The Wolf was scary and fluffy and soon as soon as Little Red Riding Hood saw the wolf she called the Zoo Keepers on her mobile. But the zoo keepers said” If you are saw  going to sell the wolf take good care of it. When Little Red Riding Hood saw her Nana she was so happy and but do you know who who is Nana? Yes it is the wolf. Then she screamed “AHHHH” Then she grabbed a bat and started smacking the wolf with it. Where is my real nana then the wolf pointed to his stomach. Then she called to zoo keepers to come and kill it.

The 3 lazy pigs


Oink,Oink,Oink,Oink the 3 lazy pigs got out of bed and went downstairs to have Porridge with toast, after eating the 3 lazy pigs decided to go for a walk. Suddenly they saw a strange house that they have never saw when they go for a walk knock,knock as they door opened with a squeaky noise there they saw a wolf with it’s wife and children. “Grrrrr as the wolf get angry and starts to walk slowly towards the pigs. The 3 little pigs ran as fast as they could their legs were aching and their lungs are screeching, they ran through the door and slammed  the door.

So the wolf huffed and puffed and blew there house away ahhh the 3 little pigs screamed. So they ran to find a place where the wolf wouldn't find them. Later on that day they arrived to a place called Pigsaville the place of the mud. The wolf saw where they were going so he pretended to be a pig by dressing up as a pig so he can eat the 3 little pigs. As soon as he got there he couldn't see them, the 3 little pigs where at his house trying to kill his children and his wife.

At 3.00pm the wolf arrived to his house and saw no one there because every time when he comes from somewhere or to go and find some food they will always come out and hug him. As he got in the house he saw his family shot and killed. The 3 pigs said to the wolf “ If you blow down or house again or touch us we will kill you too and eat your family. So the wolf ran away but the 3 pigs laughed because his family wasn't dead they pretended to be dead to teach him a lesson to not go and scare little kids like that. Then they lived happily ever after The End.
