My Woven Photo Reflection

 Woven Photo Portrait




  1. What did you accomplish?

I accomplished Weaving patiently for 20 - 30 minutes 


  1. Are you satisfied with your woven photo portrait? Why / Why not?

I am satisfied with my woven photo because there were no muck ups during the time I was weaving.


  1. What did you find easy when you created your woven photo portrait?

I found it easy finding a pattern during the weaving process. It was over and under. 



  1. What did you find challenging when you were weaving your woven photo portrait? 

I found adjusting the paper hard because the paper would sometimes stop sticking.



  1. What do you need to work on?

I need to work on my patience because I almost ripped the paper because I was going too fast.




  1. What would you adjust with your woven photo portrait? 

I think my woven photo is what I wanted and there is no adjusting it with anything.



7. What would you do next time to improve your self portrait?

I would ignore distractions the next time we do a similar task.

My Father's Journey Story by Aden

  Lawrence’s Journey Story 

Aden & Ayla’s Dad

By Aden


This is a journey story about how my Dad came to New Zealand.


My Dad was born in Samoa on November 29th 1971. My Dad came to New Zealand in 2008 because my Mum wanted to finish school. He wanted to come here because he was a citizen of New Zealand. It was a direct flight from Samoa to New Zealand. They decided to stay in Auckland because they had family here. He found Auckland rather different compared to Samoa. Auckland was big and Samoa was small. My Dad was homesick during the time. New Zealand is our home now. He misses the beaches, food, and the lifestyle in Samoa. Within the years he has been here, he has only been back to Samoa twice.

was young)

Information report about Mary Mackillop

                                     Mary MacKillop report


Mary MacKillop was born January 15th 1842 in Melbourne, Australia. Her parents are Flora and Alexander, they are from scotland. They visited Australia and found it good, Mary’s family was poor. Mary was the oldest out of her 8 siblings. When Mary was 18, she moved to Penola in South Australia. In March 1866, she became the first Josephite Sister. She had a dream that she opened a school for all the poor kids. Then her dream came true. Mary MacKillop was misunderstood by some priests and bishops. A bishop named Bishop Sheil excommunicated Mary MacKillop and 47 other sisters. 5 months later Mary’s excommunication was lifted. Another time Bishop Reynolds told Mary Mackillop to pack her bags and move out of Adelaide. She was wrongly accused of doing things.Through out her life she was often ill. She suffered rheumatism and had a stroke in 1902, also becoming paralysed one her right side. After all the illnesses she's been through, she was still strong. Mary died peacefully in a convent in North Sydney, August 8th 1909. Everyone around the world is inspired by Mary MacKillop.
