Holiday Blog
Blog about the last 2 weeks on holiday… add a couple of pics after you’ve written your Blog.
S P I L E S
S - Social activities (friends, whanau)
P- Physical (e.g bike riding, running, sport)
I - Intellectual (E.g. something you did to extend your thinking & learning e.g. reading)
L - Likes (things you enjoyed doing)
E - Emotional (what sort of emotions during the holidays?… happy, sad, frustrated..)
S - Success
During the holidays I clean up the house for my mum and dad when they're at work. My brothers mostly look after me because I'm the youngest in our family. After I’m finished up cleaning, I mostly grab something to eat and watch netflix with my brothers. When my dad comes back he always cooks chicken and sausages on the grill for dinner and it always tastes delicious.

art huru
Hello, today in art class we have been doing a personal logo. My personal logo is about me because I like moons, cats, seeing space and Mountains. I think I can see it more clearly with the lines, I don't think it's even because i scratched it to much I also think that I should have left the cercle without scratching it, and maybe just scratched the ears and halo around it, and the moon on it. But i think it's well okay not the best but okay, On the top right was supposed be a sun but i think it smudged. the star next to it was something I couldn't draw back when i was little but I know how to do it my friend put it on and it made me remember so I keeped it on as a memory.
