Waitangi Day!

On Tuesday the 5th of February I started to read an Article to teach me more about Waitangi day. In primary school, I learned about it and was not very serious about it, I completely forgot about it.

 I don't know really know so much of Waitangi day but I guess Waitangi day is a very important day to New Zealand or Kiwi's themselves. But if there was no treaty my prediction is that probably we only made a treaty to not have a war but to hate each other by now. But thankfully to Hone Heke Pokai and William Hobson everyone is in peace. But before even the British came to NZ an English man named James Cook found our country New Zealand and just put it on the world map when he sailed back to his home he told every on to go check NZ out.

Every year on the 6th day of February it is Waitangi day it's not just an ordinary day of February it is one NZ's Holidays. Some people celebrate it and other people just take it as a day of work or school, some people got to churches and they sing and dance. I have learned so much stuff after reading articles of Waitangi day thanks to Miss Allan our wonderful teacher who cared about Waitangi day allowed us to learn more about a wonderful day in NZ.

How it all started is when a significant day was celebrated in New Zealand's history.

Why do people celebrate Waitangi day is because we want to celebrate how the day everyone come together.

What are things you can do on Waitangi day is that you can go to churches or actually have a road trip to Waitangi there are so many things you can do that can actually be so much fun.

Waitangi day is all celebrated on the 6th of February but the first day of Waitangi day was in the 1840s.

If you are wondering where Waitangi day would be holding it would most probably be held in Churches, Whares and much more.

Fish In A Tree!?

"Everybody is a genius but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." - Albert Einstein

My class had just finished reading a book called 'Fish In A Tree'. 
In this book, the main character is Ally she is a young girl about 11 to 12 years old and has dyslexia. It all started off with her being lonely at school she had no friends it was always hard for her when she did reading. Then she made new friends with her kindness and acknowledgment, and their names were Albert and Keisha. She also was a girl that was bullied by two girls named Shay and Jessica, but the only reason for that is since she made a small mistake between her crackers and Shay's crackers.

Her teacher's name is Mr. Daniels, he is also the person trying to help Ally with dyslexia since all her other teacher did not understand what she was going through so she had a lot of time in detention for physically yes but not mentally. In the end, she found out her big brother Travis also has dyslexia so that is the first time she asks for help but for her brother. She never asked help as she knew something was wrong with her, the bullies that used to bully changed a whole lot one that is Jessica regretted all the things she had done and ended being friends with Ally and not with Shay. Also, Shay ended up feeling lonely and confused the same way Ally did so she realized what terrible things she did to Ally while Ally was having such a hard time.  "There is no impossible but there is Im- possible."
