Report Writing on Lock down

Friday 19 June

Trapped in their cage for 1 hour!!!

Thursday 18 June, 2020

Te Wairua Pakiki Whanau and the rest of St Pius X School went into lockdown for at least 1 hour at 9:47. 

All students were taped to the ground on their tummies, there wasn’t a single sound in the last minutes, it was bright but it turned to darkness, the tables were their caves and it was pouring with rain. 

Some of the students did not follow the instructions that Julie (lockdown instructor) gave, however most of the students were quiet causing them to have a nap while waiting for their principal, Paul Coakley to release them from their cages. 

After the students escaped, they were sent downstairs to let them know how good they were and what they needed to practise on.

Will New Zealanders survive this lockdown?

It has been 7 weeks since New Zealand has been on lockdown. 

On Wednesday, March 25th 2020 New Zealanders were obliged to go into lockdown by Jacinda Adern PM (Prime Minister). This was because the contagious COVID-19 spread quickly and powerfully and also to keep safe from the disease.

People in New Zealand have other ways to keep safe like wear a face mask and gloves, social distancing, being quarantined at home and apply hand sanitizers when touching things others have touched.

Report Writing
Gone But Never Forgotten

“Goodbye Grandpa” was the last words that the Fotofili Family said to their Grandpa.

A family of 7 has lost their beloved father, grandpa, great-grandpa and friend, Silongoua Fotofili on Sunday, the 24th of May, 2020. The funeral was only held one day as posed to the normal 5 days. This was because of COVID-19 and there were only 100 people allowed inside the Church while some people were outside. This was because of the Government’s rules.

“We were all devastated when we heard that his heart just stopped,” said Peli, the youngest boy of the family. 

Inside the Church, it was filled with sadness and hearts were aching, waterfalls rushing down their faces, nose sniffing like dogs and uncontrollable tears. 

  

“The day we lost him, our hearts just shattered into pieces. We had no idea that we were going to lose him so suddenly,” the eldest girl in the family cried.
