A New Year, New Starting

Kia Ora my name is Kolio. I am back and I'm in a new class, grown taller, and I'm a year older.
I'm a year 7 in Room 8 at Saint Patrick's School. I'm ready to learn, more confident and I have a positive  attitude. My new class mates are good role models for next year and college.

Euphraise Barbier

We are learning to talk about Eupharise-her values, attitudes, faith, and practices. The wordle is a creative expression of the writing that follows.

Euphrasie Barbier was born the 4th of January 1829 at Caen, France into a industrious lower class family. Euphraise began a new missionary institute known as the RNDM Mission Sisters during the year of 1848.

It was a family in with strong Catholic faith.When Euphrasie was young girl she appreciated her mother for her vibrant faith, and the importance of her family. The example of her father Louis, a shoemaker, taught Euphrasie the importance of a job well done and honestly completed. When she was a young adult the church in France was an extraordinarily a live and courageous church.  

All through her life she had strong faith in God and had a humble, positive attitude. Even though Euphrasie had  hard but challenging times she kept her head up and pushed through those kind of times.  Her actions demonstrate her courage ,determination, and commitment and strong faith helped her through what she did.

Christmas Concert

At Saint Patrick's we have a Christmas Concert each year. I have made a invitation for my Mum and Dad for this special time. You are welcome to come along and watch.

My Chromebook

Kia Ora. I have Chromebook that I like so much. In Room 5 each student had to answer this question How has having a netbook, connected to the internet, helped my learning this year?

It’s is faster. Google is just right there at you tip of your fingers so I can get my work done faster. I just need to put in  my key words and then skim and scan and I've find the answer.

It helps my friends if there netbook is dead because I can just search it up what they need then get on with my work. When  you write in your book it is just too slow but when you type it is more faster.

I use short cuts get somewhere in the internet faster. My documents are already saved so I don’t lose them and I can go back to them and use them to study.

I get comments on my work from my teacher to improve my learning on any doc. If you have a sentence that you don’t want there and you want to put in the bottom you just need to highlight then ctrl c (which is ctrl copy) to copy and put it where you want to put it by ctrl v ( which is ctrl paste)to paste.

You could do your work anywhere in the world but you have to internet. If you have you have a book and you need to have it marked by your teacher but you want to put some more in but you can’t or if  you have a computer and internet and a Google account you just need to sign in and change it. My favourite thing about my chromebook is my bookmarks, it gets me to other sights more faster.

Peace Will Win The War

We are learning about the people of advent. Isaiah have talked about what will happen if God will be on earth.  Nations shall not lift a sword to other nation witch means there will be peace and no war.

My Feather

In Room 5 we are trying to understand the important's of the Maori cloak. I know I have learnt this when I know what is on it like feathers and who wears it like chiefs , leaders , special and important people . The cloak is only worn during Matariki when the seven star's show up and other special days. Feathers can be put on a Maori cloak's so I have made a paper feather and drawn what I have done this year.

This is my learning that I put on my blog. I have pin pointed the places I have talked about in my learning.
