On a hot sunny Saturday me and my family went to my nans
tangi because she passed away.

First me, my mum, my dad and 3 brothers went to the farm

near the marae. I went inside and kissed my nana and all the
other people kissed nan to. After that my papa’s frends done a
mihi. Everybody was looking at his friends but me and my
cousins were looking everywhere else. When it was finished
we had some dinner. We had some chips, sauce and bread
all added together. It was delicious.

Then we were going to sleep. My brothers had a sleepover at

the marae but we were bored so we played hide and seek in
the dark. I was the only who was not  found because they were
too scared to go by the park cause they always run into the
pole. So I went around looking for them and they were inside.
I got scared because they all gave me a fright so we all went to
bed. Everyone was asleep so we had to be quiet.

The next day we had breakfast. We had french toast. It was so
yum that I had four french toast. Then I played tag in the dining
room where we were eating but there was nothing so I played
with the babies. I was only running my slowest.

Next I had a shower then I was finished. It was so nice then I
got changed.

We went to the car to get the coffin. It was heavy.

We had to carry it to the marae. It was sad. Everyone was
crying.

It took a long time but I had water so I had a drink. Then we
were at the marae.

It was lunchtime. There was chicken, potatoes, veggies lollies
and heaps of seafood and a drink. It was so delicious.

After lunch me, my cousins, and my brothers played for a little

while. We were playing soccer and rugby.
