Aroha in my whanau

 WA describing aroha in our whanau


I love my whanau because they are loving and show me aroha. My mum is single and she is lovely the way she is. I have a brother and we live in a small house in Glen Innes. My family is the best and I am very grateful.


When my wider family gathers together it feels like the best day in the year. I love my Nana and papa because when my mum went to school, they looked after me when I was little. My disabled aunt Gloria is very smart and always smiles.


My brother sometimes cries for my things and I get very mad and yell at him. Then I feel bad and we sit and watch “Attack on Titan” on anime. 


My favourite person is my aunty Brinette because she is always kind to me even though sometimes she growls at me to do the right thing. I have nine family members including me and all of us love one another.


My whanau spoils my brother and me so much and they say we deserve it. The one thing that I love about whanau is when we come together and laugh. My family and I always aroha and we always will.


My favourite proverb is: “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” because I am like my family, especially my Mum.


My favourite aroha symbol is:
