TONGA VS NEW ZEALAND

As the week and the day went by,  everyone has been waiting for arrival of  the tonga vs kiwis game on the 11th of November Tonga became the first tier-two rugby league nation in history to defeat a tier-one nation, beating New Zealand 28-22 . This awesome game took part in  FMG Stadium in Hamilton, New Zealand.

As the game  began  Fifita immediately makes an impact, brushing off the attempted tackle of Brad Takairangi from the kickoff! Taumalolo follows up with a strong run of his own.Tonga win the penalty inside their own half after the Kiwis were deemed to have lost the ball forward. They'll go for touch for the quick-tap 40m out from the try-line.

With an   extraordinary second-half display in today's World Cup clash in Hamilton . Jason Taumalolo and Andrew Fifita played with extreme force to against kiwis line but David Fusitu’a with  astonishing Try’s straight from the second half and Tuimoala Lolohea with a beautiful intercept And finishing with a try.

My six  favorite Players are Andrew Fifita , Jason Taumalolo , Konrad Hurrel , Daivd Fusitua ,

Sika Manu , Siliva Havili .Sadly I did not attend  this wonderful game it was heart breaking that I  didn’t go but next time . GO TONGA KEEP UP THE SPIRIT  .

Tenths And Hundredths

This weeks task was to focus and identify the uses of tenths to make numbers, We compared fractions and decimals and how we could change one to the other.

Culture

Greetings to you all and Malo e lelei today I am going to be speaking on my Culture So my Culture is Tongan . In  Tongan culture a lot of   people ask about the ta’ovala we wear or mats in English and the food we eat it may sound wired but  it is delicious . TA’OVALA/MATS  

Like tapa making, mat weaving is an everyday part of Tongan life. Women gather in small groups weaving, and sing or talk together to keep themselves inspired. Mats are the most treasured possessions in Tongan households, and are traditionally presented at births, weddings, funerals and other special occasions. Tongans also wear mats known as ta’ovala around the waist, the most respectful form of dress in the Kingdom. This custom originated in ancient times when men returning after long voyages at sea, would cut the mat sails of their canoes and cover their naked bodies prior to appearing before their chief. Finely woven ta’ovala are particularly treasured, and are handed down from generation to generation, some dating back hundreds of years.   Food / Me'a Kai

Expect to be very well fed on your travels. Traditional Tongan favourites to try include ‘ota ‘ika (raw fish marinated in lemon and coconut cream), and lu pulu (corned beef and coconut milk wrapped in taro leaves). Food and feasting are an integral part of Tongan society, and the feasts of the Kingdom are renowned throughout the Pacific for their size and diversity. In a Tongan feast, up to 30 different dishes are served on a pola, a long tray made from plaited coconut fronds. Traditional food growing and the gathering of seafood is still an important way of Tongan life. Delicious meat and seafood may include spit-roasted suckling pig or steamed fish, chicken, beef, and octopus, and the freshest of local vegetables including yam, taro, sweet potatoes and cassava. Starchy fruit like plantain and breadfruit are also eaten like vegetables, often boiled with delicate coconut cream, and a popular local custom is to wrap vegetables in banana leaves for cooking or for serving. A special memory for many visitors is to experience a traditional earth oven or umu. Food cooked slowly and carefully in an umu retains its flavour, and also develops a delicious smokiness.

EDUCATION

                  EDUCATION

Distinguished guests, my dear teachers, and dear friends,Every little face I can see here came into this world by god trailing clouds of glory from heaven. And suddenly the little angel finds herself filled with doubts, fears and confusion.Education is what removes our doubts and fears; what makes us happy and peaceful; what makes us better human beings. The teacher comes, removes the darkness and suddenly we find how beautiful this world is. And experience is often our best teacher.But gaining knowledge alone doesn’t make one educated. Education is complete only when we learn how to live, how to hope, how to pray and how to behave to others.Once a man was walking in the desert when a voice called him and said, “Pick up some pebbles and put them in your pocket, and tomorrow you will be both sorry and glad.”

Why We Need To Drink Water

I am going to explain to you  why we should drink water Well if you did not know me and you have 80 percent of water in our body that is good because it cleans out your inside and it keeps you strong and healthy so it is good for me and you. I am thankful because in some places they is like no clean water at all so we should stop wasting water and think about those who don’t have water  .We need to drink water because it keeps you hydrated Because if you are not hydrated you can get sick and things like that .it is good  for  humans because if you don’t you will not survive .Don’t drink too much water before you will have fatal diseases and it will cause the level of salt, or sodium in your blood to drop low. It is a condition it has a fance name for it  hypothermia. That is also called water intoxication .This is the end of my writing and I hope you've got more ideas of why we need water.Water  is good for you so keep on drinking water I hope you have enjoy my writing.
