Ako hiko ambassadors.

 29.6.21   Term 2 Week 9 

 Ako hiko ambassadors.  

Today I went to a meeting, where I learned what a ako hiko ambassador is. A ako hiko ambassador  is a person who is in a group,where people share similar goals. Ako hiko ambassadors leave positive comments on people's blogs. They are always aiming for three things, these three things are: achievement, equity and opportunity. A ako hiko ambassador is always supposed to model how to be cybersmart, we have to take things off teacher's plates which doesn't actually mean taking food of teacher's plates, it means taking work off teachers and doing them ourselves. After meetings we have to go to our head teachers and tell them what we did in the meetings, so in my case I have to go tell Miss Corbett or Miss Laxa. We also have to do tasks that are set for us, and this week we are focusing on getting ideas from different people in New Windsor school and doing podcasts with them. I like this role because I think teachers do a lot of work and I love to help. So that's all I know about ako hiko ambassadors but there still might be more things that a ako hiko ambassador has to do.

Chop Suey

 10.6.21   Term 2 Week 6

Chop Suey

On Thursday when Room 12 came back from their awesome lunch,there was a surprise waiting for us.Hania's dad, Mr T, was making chop suey for us.He was wearing a pink apron, he had lots of ingredients with him.The ingredients were chicken dipped in sesame oil, frozen vegetables, jasmine rice, vermicelli and lots of sauces etc. the sauces were soy sauce, ABC sauce and oyster sauce. It took a long time to make it and we helped too.When it was finally finished, it's strong aroma filled the air. I literally  floated towards it,the chop suey was delicious. It smelt a bit like baked fish and a bit like ramen. It tasted like chinese noodles and because I also got hot sauce it was spicy. The noodles looked like the golden noodles you would get in the ramen in Naruto and the rice was as fluffy as my mum's. The sea of noodles was really slippery and the field of rice was really soft.The sauces really made it delicious because even the vegetables tasted good and they usually don't. It was one of the most delicious foods I had ever had.   




The panikeke

 10.6.21      Term 2   Week  6         

The panikeke

On Friday, Room 12 and 13 ate some Samoan food, there were two foods to choose from. I chose the delicious Panikeke, also known as a round pancake. I had to wait a little because they served the koko alaisa first, which is basically cocoa rice first. When they started serving  the Panikeke, I couldn't resist it's delicious aroma. I literally drifted towards it, that's why I was fifth in line I think. The Panikeke was one of the most delicious things I have ever had. It looked like the moon but only a different colour. The outside was a goldish brown colour and the inside was as white as a cloud. When I bit into the scrumptious pancake it made a little crunching noise which I thought was amazing. It was sweet  but oily at the same time, which I don't think is easy to combine the two. When I finished I just wanted more and more because it was so delicious but sadly they only let us have one Panikeke.

My awesome blog introduction...

 9.6.21 - Term 2 Week 6 

My awesome blog introduction...

Talofa, Kia ora, Konichiwa and Salam.

Hi! My name is Raeed, and my favourite colour is metallic blue. My favourite subject is Maths. Ever since I was little, Maths has been kind of easy for me. Cricket is my favourite sport. I'm really good at batting, and i'm kind of good at bowling. I can do some tricks on my trampoline, but i'm not very good at backflipping or front flipping. I can still do side flips though. I can play the keyboard, although I must say, I am just a beginner. My mum is really good at Maths. She taught me everything I know about Maths. My dad is really good at English. He taught me everything I know about English too. One of the things I don't like is drawing.

Also, just saying - i'm a bit of a nerd!
