My holiday 2021

 I had an amazing time on Sunday while going to church. The main reason why I was at church was because it was White Sunday. White Sunday is a national holiday for some Pacific countries. Every year I have to say a hymn in Tongan up on the stage, but sadly last year I could not because it was lock down. I was so afraid but happy because I was saying it for my family.

In the morning about 10:30am I got ready and went to my nana's house, to put on my dress and accessories, such as a Ta'ovala (a Ta’ovala is a traditional mat that is made by hand. It takes hard work to make it, that is why it usually costs about 100 dollars or more). The dress I wore was my Mum’s dress when she was my age or older. It had a bow on it and it had flowers at the bottom of the dress. When I got dressed it looked like I was turned into a princess.

 When it was about 11:40AM we went to church. When me and my Mum got there we stood at the back for a little while, but then I got called to sit down near the front. I sat there for quite a bit but then I got told to go on stage. When I went on stage I was the last person to say my hymn. There were fourteen people before so I had some time to practise in my head. When the microphone was in my hand I got scared and I didn’t want to say anything, but then realised that if I did that I would disappoint my family. I said my hymn loud and clear. (What I said up on stage in Tongan was “Ko e ngahi me’a nae mole mua he hinga hotau uluaki e toe omi he otua otufa he fanau tama ni”. My speech was about how Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate the apple. My family was so proud of me and some people even said that I should go to Sunday school because I am really good at speaking Tongan. I felt really proud of myself too and I was also relieved because now, I don't have to practise night after night trying to perfect my hymn.

After I said my speech we stayed there for about 1 hour and 30 minutes singing songs and hearing other kids saying their hymn. Afterwards me and my family went to eat KFC and then the day ended. Overall my day was nice and calming. I cannot wait until the next holidays!
