My Values about Respect.

- One Value I have is respect.

- One Value I think is important is respect.

-This means that you respect people and property.

- This is important to me because it is a School and personal value.  

- I think that when people respect to each others.

- When I show this value i use manners speak politely be sincere and do what you say you are going to do.

- I learned that respect is important value to the School and to me.

- This Value came to me from my family and School.

- My Parents value is also respect and is also mine. 

  

This is my Value we did in the English Class with Mrs Metcalfe in Tamaki College.

Holiday Recount.

In the Holidays we had nothing to do so we went to a beach in North Shore me my Dad and little brother went fishing it wasn't the beach I expected because the rocks were slippery because every time you stand on it you would fall into the water. We got where my Dad’s fishing spot it was a good view of the harbor bridge also it had good fish like Snappers, Kawai.

Fish Dad put some bait on the hooks then he threw it far then after a minute the fish started biting and Dad pulled the fishing rod to him then he reeled the fish in. We mostly got snappers but we threw them out because they were babies snappers.

After fishing we packed up because it was getting hot and we were running out of bait we used the last bait to catch one more fish all we got was Kawai then we packed up the fishing rod and went home to make dinner.
