My Autobiography!

Punipuao Afamasaga:

Introduction:

My name is Punipuao Rewalina-Jane Afamasaga and I am proudly given the culture to be Samoan. I am one of three children and a daughter of a minister/priest and a Early learning childhood teacher. I can be a competitive girl in sports especially soccer and netball but absolutely love maths.

Early life:

During my early life I had cared for my family but mostly my parents and grandparents. Having a caring and humorous family has been a massive experience towards my future. My father is an ordained minister/priest who has recently been chosen as priest for Ranui PIC. He had preached at may different churches such as :

• St Columba Botany-2014(2 months)
• Manukau PIC-2014-2016
• St John's Union Parish(Opotiki)-2017-2018
• Ranui PIPC-2018(Permanently)   

My mother has been teaching for so many years now and has been given so many promotions from other preschools because of her education and early life prizes she was given. I have two siblings who both are achieving their education and receiving promotions too. I have one brother(13) and sister(8) who have been a pain in the neck for 12 years now. My brother is attending Sacred Heart College while my sister and I go to the same school.

Career:

My career for the future is to compete in different sports and be a great cook or baker. One of my most exciting dreams for me is to be in MKR(My Kitchen Rules) or New Zealand's Great Baker in the future. I also would like to play for the Silver Ferns and win many awards for my family and maybe also get a chance to play with Maria Tutaia. Playing netball and soccer might be a challenge as their might be a lot travelling. I have played netball twice with two schools which I had some injuries(I recovered). I have also played piano my whole life and I am still continuing on. I had a few lessons with some teachers but I could not understand them well, so I decided to play piano self-taught. I have a organ and 2 keyboards at home that I play and also a ukulele and a guitar which I use to create my own music.   

Achievements:

As I grew I competed in a lot of competitions. These competitions have took all over New Zealand which was challenging for me because my parents were busy with work. These competitions were mostly interschool sports which I performed at St Joseph's Catholic School in Opotiki,Bay of Plenty. It started at school when we had athletics and the principle was impressed with my performance. She decided to put me as 5 of the Opotiki Athletics competitors. I competed and got through with six 1st places in, high jump, 800m,500m,400m,300m and 200m sprints. On my birthday was the day for the Bay of Plenty Championships which took me straight to Western Bay of Plenty Championships. I was also given a promotion to compete at the National Young Athlete World Championships taken at America which I did not attend because I decided to carry on with my education because no education means no life.

Conclusion:

I love sports, cooking, music and especially my family. School and education is what I am looking forward to and during my future. I also like pop music and RnB.
