My Mihi Mihi

Malo e lelei My name is Starford To’a and I am in room 18 at Pt England school. I am 11 years old turning 12 in June. My culture is half Tongan and half Pakeha. I love hanging out with My family, I have four siblings two Brothers and two Sisters, my 2 Brothers go to my school, one of my Sisters is in college and my older Sister works. My favorite hobby is playing Rugby League, I play for the Mount Wellington Warriors. I love My Mum and Dad because they really care for Me, My Brothers and Sisters. My Mum is from Nelson New Zealand and she was born in 1971. My Dad is from Falaha in Tonga and was born in 1974, I love those two places but I have never been there, I would like to go there one day.

Going to Tech.

"Finally" I said, waiting a long time to go to Tech (technology). If you don't know what Tech is, it is a class where you make physical objects like food, hard materiel and Electronics. I wondered which subject I was in. As Mr Barks told us what we were in, shivers went up my spine because I was in hard materiel.

As we strolled down to Tamaki Collage I got more excited each step I took. We stood in front of the Collage and this man came to us and said he was Mr Grundy, he was the hard materiel class so he was My teacher.

 In my class we were trying to make an object made out of wood.Firs we had to see what a housing joint was. It is a pice of wood that connects to another wood I am concentrating in making a helicopter,

Going Biking

In the weekends I went to the Bmx track with Potaua and Lorenzo. It was the second time I went there this year. We rode through the terrifying black train tunnel in Glen Innes to get there.

As I went through the track I started getting better and better, using all of my energy trying to jump high over the hills. Potaua and I was trying to jump the first hill and we complete our mission. As we got hot I biked to the shop and I brought a big drink.  On the way back to the track I saw some others people there, and I knew them. One of them went up the hill he went flying but he fell over, and he scraped his knee. As it got late we started riding back home.

Blog Entry

In the holidays I went to a holiday program called Youth Pride at the Tamaki recenter. I went there with my brother to get out of the house because we were bored.

When I arrived there I felt very excited, I saw my friends Kingston and Raenan and we started playing with the basket ball. Sooner later the leader came in (Mike) we started doing some drills and I hate that, because we have to do shuttles all the time.

Later on, we started playing games like basket ball and volley ball. I played volley ball it is more better to me.
