For this summer learning journey activity I had to make a bookmark.
My bookmark word was Tonga. The colours that I chose was christmas theme. I did this because red was the Tongan colours and Green was christmas theme. I used the colour contrast method to make my bookmark. I also added some pacific designs to represent as it a sign hanging on the wall.
I enjoyed this activity because I used my art skills to create this bookamrk.
For this summer learning journey activity I had to create a beat using Groove Pizza.
My beat that I made sounds like the drums. I chose the drum effect so it would sound cool. The beat that I made reminds me of the Rockstar Genre of music as it uses the drums as the main instrument and loudest.
I enjoyed this activity as I was able to make beats and enjoy a new app.
For this summer learning journey task we created a superhero. I created my superhero using AI Crayon and wrote a descriptive writing about my character.

LI: To follow the instructions to make your own origami diya (diva lamp).
The photo above shows my origami diya (diva lamp). Our first challenge was to watch the video that shows how to fold an origami diya (diva lamp). Before we could start we needed to use a ruler to measure a 20cm square piece of paper to make our own origami square. I found this challenging because I couldn’t get the right folds .
I found this activity interesting because I learnt how to make a latern from a different culture.
LI: To use your smart searching skills to find out what Diwali is and how people celebrate around the world.
Our challenge was to write create a DLO that tells others what Diwali is and how people celebrate around the world. Something I found interesting was that the third day is the main festival of Diwali because this is where many Hindus worship the godess of Lakshmi.
I found this activity interesting because I learnt that there are 5 days of Diwali.
LI: To use your smart searching skills to find the story behind this picture
Our challenge was to write create a DLO that shows where this lighthouse is and what the story is behind the image. We found out that the Phares dans la Tempete, la Jument is a lighthouse in the section of Brittany on the west coast of Northen France. It was originally buit because of a ship wreck in 1896 which resutled in 250 deaths.
I found this activity interesting because I learnt the history on why the lighthouse was built.
LI: To find and summarise the story behind the poem
10 word summary: The ship sat still with no wind or waves near. The gushing waves strolled along As The Bell sang endlong Abbot Aberbrothok placed the inchcape bell on the inchcape bed The rock was hidden well lucky Mariners heard the bell the sun did it’s routine the clouds came and fled Ralph marched along his deck as his fix’d eye suspects Ralph the Rover’s laughter was as powerful as his wickedness His eyes were vague and wanted to distinct the curse His boat went low telling his men hurry and row Down the bell went with it’s gurgling sound of laughter He Sailed by demand now he goes to Scotland’s Sands Sky filled with gray clouds and seas black all around On his deck Rover stands sees no sight of land To each other they were clinging They wish they heard ringing No sound was heard till a shivering shock was emerged It Ralphs fault his ship was Sinking full of salt As sound of Inchcape bell below was the devil’s knell.
Our challenge was to unpack the story behind the 17 verses of the poem Inchcape Rock by Robert Southy. The part I found interesting was when sir ralph the rover getting what he deserves as he cut the bell for people.
I found this activity interesting because I learnt something new about the inchcape rock and the story behind it.
LI: To describe your Superhero.
Our challenge was to design a DLO of the story they are in using key vocabulary from all our T- shaped units to describe them and their attributes. We built on this challenge by creating a slide that explained who our superhero was, their backstory, what their strengths and weaknesses were and who their nemesis was.
My superhero is Sione the Great. His Goal is to protect the people of Tonga. He likes sailing and roaming the Ocean. His alter ego is Sione the rugby player. He is from Nuku,Alofa-Tonga, Sione the rugby player goal is to win the All Blacks the Rugby World Cup but unfortunately he failed to do that and will wait another 4 more years.
I found this activity enjoyable as I was able to find out how my culture could be involed with a Superhero.
I am currently working on my atitiude badge. To achieve this my challenge is to complete 5 tasks that help me strengthen my connections to the PBS CARE value of Atitude. Atitude helps us respect other people’s enviorment and their belongings. For this activity I had to represent the school at an outside function.
