About Rarotonga

When I was 7 I was in New Zealand but before that I was in Rarotonga. In Rarotonga the beaches are beautiful and it is sometimes really hot. The sand is white and the sea is light blue.

The schools in Raro are sometimes strict but the primary schools are usually kind. They have easy work for the children . But once when I was at school the work we got was hard because it was a test. I felt a little bit funny but I got some of the work done.T he school in Raro I went to was called Akataimea.

In Raro things they sell are expensive. Some people they come to New Zealand to buy stuff because in New Zealand things are cheaper. Some come for a holiday then after their holiday they buy clothes and food to take to Raro when they go back. Sometimes my mum sends money to us through the bank. She sends it to us so we can by the things she wants. When we buy it we have to send it to Raro.

Term 1. The Pt England Way

Hi my name is Kezia and I am a year 5 at Pt England School. We've been learning about the Pt England Way and we've also been learning about the Treaty of Waitangi. It was an agreement between the Maori people and the queen signed in the 1840's. We've also been writing about our goals in the future and our goals for in the class room. My class goal is to be better at my divisions. I only know some but not all of them. My goal for the future is to be a soccer player like David Beckham.
