Manaiakalani Film Festival- by desiree

Last Wednesday we went to the Manaiakalani Film festival to watch our St Patrick's School movies. We went on a bus to the Sylvia Park movie house. We watched 23 Films festival and they were St Patrick's School, Panmure Bridge, Tamaki Collage and Point England School. We had to go into our houses and go with a partner to look after them at the Sylvia Park movie house.

My partner was Leonie she came on the the same bus. I was excited to go to the Sylvia park to watch all the different School's. My favorite one was the Tamaki Collage when they went to the beach and they saw heaps fish's in the sea. They said that it was so scarey to look at the fishes. I saw a yellow and blue fish on the Tamaki College movie. 

Bird of the year

A Hoiho is a penguin in Maori and this is the bird of the year. Did you know that a Hoiho penguin has yellow eyes? A Hoiho penguin is on the five dollar note so people in new Zealand might know it and talk about it. They also like to eat fish like squid.
