Activity 1: Setting Sail
Our first task is too make a list of the ten food items I would take on a three week voyage.

This voyage took place way back in the 70's when our ancestors invisioned and built this an amazing canoe says Nainoa Thompson. They aren't here now but, their creation has gone a long way. It's been on many voyages one being the Naoni a three week voyage, at which you will spend at sea. This voyage to 16 years of consideration before it was decided that they will actaully carry out this task.

Almost 3 years ago, Nainoa Thompsan arrived at our very Pt England Reserve. Yes, the one that we go to every year for our annual picnics. The one we had gotten our flounder from, and place we saw the Hikianalia and Hōkūleʻa. I was in year 5 and remember it like it was yesterday. That was a truly amazing day, and it inspired our school so much we named our sports houses after the canoes, Hikianalia Hōkūleʻa, Hine Moana and Te Aurere/


One this voyage if I could take ten food items it would be, pasta, nuts, dried fruits, cows, milk, rice, eggs, canned food, cookies and lollies. some of these items seem quite absurd and crazy, but since im a picky eater, I have to make the most of what I do eat.

I would take pasta as you can make many dishes with it easily, and it won't go bad over a long period of time, in this case three weeks. Nuts and dried frust are also a good idea because of the fact that they are delicous healthy and there's not much work to do in keeping the fresh and good to eat. I would believe it or not take a cow on a voyage. It may take up room but it will give us milk when it's alive and meat later. Rice is a good item to take overseas to as it's dry and easy to transport. Canned food, may not be the healthiest but it's easy to keep edible. Cookies and lollies are probably not a good idea but a snack from time to time is needed.

Activity 2: Discovering Aotearoa
For this task we are asked to, search our family backgrounds and share the varieties of backgrounds we came from, and where your family dates back too.

Most of my family comes from Fiji, may parents are from fiji and so are my grandparents, great grandparents and event here parents. So my family has goes back generations in Fiji, I couldn't orginate where exactly they where from before there cause my family has lived in Fiji for a long time. However me and all my siblings are the first generation to be born overseas. The only reason I was born overseas was because my grandfather had come here as a kid with a reason regarding buisness. This was quite interesting to find out!

Activity 3: Scaling New Heights
In this task we are asked to chose a charity from the 4 options we were given. When then had to read and learn as much as possible about the charity of our choice. 

The charity I chose is the SPCA, a charity that helps rescue and find new homes for animals, that have gone threw some hard times. There are many animals and the money they get from giving aways these animals to good owners is used again to rescue other animals in need.
