After that we introduces Joseph Parker to speak. He played the guitar for us, he then told us about what hes been going through with his fighting and stuff. He then told us a important Korero, he said " Never give up and nothing beats hard work ". That was a really good Korero. What I learnt was to never give up and do it before its to late. He gave us some good things.
We then went off with the certificates, Joseph Parker and his sister Elizabeth stood up and shake the people who got an award. Then we moved onto lunch box hero, They picked out a name and said my name. I got a coconut for being picked out. Some of my other friends and class mate got some prizes too. Next we moved onto sports. They talked about what sports were on and so on. Then we moved onto a singing a song. A beautiful song about Matariki. Then after the song we welcome the new kids. After welcoming the new kids we went back to class. Some of the kids got to shake his hand and take photos with him.
What I wanted to ask him can he speak Samoan or what village is he from. I wanted to ask a lot of questions to Joseph Parker.
