Story of parihaka
Opinion: My opinion about the parihaka stories is that the pakeha should not have stolen the Maori's land. they should of went to a place without anybody on it and taken that land to stop what they caused. If they did go to a different place we wouldn't be in New Zealand and instead, we would be in London or America.
Main Ideas: The idea of the parihaka story is that it is telling us to not do what happened in the past. If we do that New Zealand will have a lot of racism which isn't good. And if we had a war we wouldn't be a peaceful country
Questions: I want to know why the pakeha couldn't go to a different country? And why didn't the Maori just find a different spot to avoid all the drama? I wonder why the author made this story so short instead of a proper book?

lockdown day 2
Day one was okay but I'm starting to get bored on day two. That's why I have been playing brawlhalla and minecraft more. I'm also going for a walk today, maybe even a bike ride, only around the block though. I wish that we were not in lockdown so my birthday party would be this week. But i guess I can't change the fact that we are locked in our houses. And if i could i would go to the park and play volleyball. When i go back to my pc im going to build something in creative the end.
that was 100 words just like my last one

Covid 19 100 word story
New Zealand has been put into lockdown for three days. If you don't know what lockdown is then search it on google. During lockdown you have to isolate yourself from the world. There are some exceptions such as family members that you live with, shopping for food and doctors/hospitals. But make sure to wear a mask if you dont you could spread the virus that put us into lockdown in the first place. And if you have the covid tracer app use it as much as possible. Otherwise like I said it will spread, that's how we got it.
not including these words that im write here that was 100 words. and remember stay safe and if you are sick stay home

Fiji wins gold
hi today we did work about Fiji winning the Olympics for sevens rugby here is my work
Olympic Gold was won by the Fiji Rugby Sevens team in Tokyo last evening (NZ time).
The game was against Fiji who ended up winning Gold Medals.
Fiji’s captain is legend Jerry Tuwai. He said this win was very special because they had to go into quarinteen after Easter. They have not seen their familly since. They spent most of that time shut up in a hostel in hotel in suva, training in a gym they built in a garage
When they were on their way to Japan the Fijian tam got stuck on a cargo plane Along with some crates full of frozen fish
These experiences helped them form a very tight group of people which makes for a great experience
Here are some images of the winners.
