maori proverbs

In Maori we have been learning about a Whakatauki
A Whakatauki is a proverb, what is truly valued in the Maori Culture.
The Whakatauki that we have been learning about is if we all shared then no one would go without.
We would be able to provide for all that come to us.
There are also Proverbs in the Bible that encourage us to share.
Read these proverbs : Proverbs 19:17; 22:9; 31:20.
Jesus also showed us the teachings of God when he feed the multitudes of people with the fish and the loaves. Read more about this in the Gospel of John: 6 or the Gospel of Matthew: 14.

In room six we have been learning to classify an animal .scientists classify plants an animals into groups in order to easily identify, sort and name them.

Just imagine a sunny winters day at the wharf about to launch your boat, well that's what happens to me twice a month .When i go fishing we always come back with something to eat but in the future that might not happen because of pollution.this animals are amazing but there probably won't be alive much longer.

1.grey nurse shark.when we saw this amazing creature it was in pauanui.we were fishing and then my dad spotted a massive shark coming to the surface. While i was hoping it would go away and not come back my sister was screaming so loud you could probably hear it from miles away. But then the shark came back and we had a spare fish so we through it to him so he gently grabbed the fish in his mouth and swam away. That day when we went home our poppa was there and told him about the shark and he told me that it was one of the most gentle sharks
Ever.


2.stingray
This we also saw in pauanui we were at slipper island and me my brother and two of our friends were on the biscuit in water that was about 1 meter and a stingray elegantly smam just under us it was scary and amazing at the same time.



3. Kingfish
When i caught this We were in Auckland and there were full size king fish 75cm swimming at the surface so i got my hand line out and waited and waited intl bang i had a king fish on my line so i pulled it up and got a photo i was so happy but it was the only one undersized it would of been a mean feed.



4. Gurned we were late night fishing in auckland and the sun was going down for the whole time we were catching snapper and we were getting a bit bored so dad said lines up were going so we did but mum had a gurned that was sitting at the bottom and she pulled it up and we had fish for diner.


5.sea lion i used to think that there were no sea lions in the ocean but on may 19th that all changed i saw a sea lion in the water eating a john dory which is a marine fish that looks like a soldier from its colors. It was a very amazing animal to see in the ocean it was just chucking the fish when bam it hit the side of the boat





6. Barracuda most of you probably think that the barracuda only stay down at the bottom of the ocean but they don't. i was fishing and we didn’t catch anything at all intal my poppa caught a massive barracuda that was the reason that we were not catching any fish because fish are scared of barracudas.





7. Leather jacket no it is not some old leather jacket floating in the water it is a fish with a spike on its head and leathery skin.most sea birds will love eating one of these but us humans it won’t be very nice.





These are some great memories and when im older i will hope i can get a boat to go fishing i hope you will get to see these amazing sites that i saw.
