Tokelau 27/2/16
Arriving!
It was such a big relief to see Fenua Fale from the
boat. It was so hard for me to get onto the deck because I was feeling so sick.
During the whole journey I was sick fifteen times. L
School!
On the first day of school I felt so nervous. When
we got to the school there were a group of girls sitting under a tree, so
Ruana, Ngaremu and I went and sat with them. We got there about three minutes
before the assembly started. Then after the assembly we went to the office to get
our school books and meet the principal, who took us to our classrooms. All the
kids in my class are really nice, but there are three girls in my class who
really look after me. Two of their names are Maleta and Melina I do not know
what the third girls name is. The learning here is easy like in maths we were drawing fractions, these were the fractions 7/20 and 9/20.
Animals!
There are a lot of different animals here in
Tokelau but also a lot of animals the same as in New Zealand like there are a
lot of chickens a few sea birds heaps of crabs and a whole lot of pigs. The
animals here New Zealand doesn't have a lot of are lizards, geckos and so many
fish, puffer fish, Reef Sharks, sea
turtles and just other amazing fish.

I know what it's like going to a new school after the year has started. It can be quite scarey but at least I understood what the other kids were saying. My family moved around NZ quite a bit for my dad's work. I'm sure you'll make friends quickly. How amazing that the girls that looked after you had similar names to you. How many children are there in your class?
