 Friday the 21st of May, we had Rã Haka day and Pink Shirt day were combined. Quite a lot of people wore pink to support the anti-bullying message. Including me. I wore a pink tutu and feathery boa. Most of the day we learned a waiata and the college haka. The waiata was easy to learn for me and we did it about 10 times before we moved onto the haka that went alongside the waiata. That was harder to learn. All the moves were confusing for me and I'm still pretty bad at it.  After break one we split up into our house groups to preform the haka as a house.

 My curriculum goal for term two is too get all green on Write That Essay. Some of my stats on Write That Essay are not the best so I would like to get better. I would like to get better at writing in general so that I can be more confident in my work. I need to work on my precision, mastery, paragraph length, sentence length, etc.  My music goal for term two is to learn more songs on piano either double-handed or by ear. I feel happy when I get a song right without a tutorial or if I manage to play a song with two hands. That's why I want to get better and do more songs and stuff. Positive Comment- i think you should keep up the good work .
