Project Based Learning

Hello my name is Isabella welcome to my blog. Our learning focus for project based learning this term is about culture stories. I think it is pretty cool and so far pretty fun. My Mum is half Greek and my Dad is from France and Samoa so I have lots of culture. I am mostly Greek . One of our traditions is name day. In Greece children are named after Saints or gods . If you have a name after a Saint then you celebrate your Saints day as your name day. For example my name is Isabella Eleftheria Vaiese and I got baptised Eleftheria so I celebrate Saint Eleftherios name day on December 15th each year. My family says to me ‘Xronia Polla” which means happy name day. In Greece it is tradition to name your child after their grandparents. I am named after my Paupau (grand father) Eleftherios. I have the female equivalent Eleftheria. In Greece all people are the same religion, Greek Orthodox. I am baptised Greek Orthodox. There are some interesting things in Orthodox religion. It is a very old religion. Jesus is the head of the church, not the pope and we celebrate Easter more than Christmas. These are some photos of greek religion.

At my Christening I was fully submerged in a font, the priest took some of my hair and I was washed and slathered in olive oil. My Godmother is my Aunty Elene. She gave me a beautiful cross and special outfit. Another tradition is that women in Greece wear their wedding band on their right hand not their left as in NZ. This is because Jesus worked his miracles with his right hand. When a child is born in Greece their parents pin a evil eye on the child’s clothes to warn off bad spirits or evil. Greek homes also have icons to pray to, and we light candles to remember a loved Paupau who sadly passed away. At our house we eat Greek food. For example olives, keftedes, tiropita, feta cheese, greek salad and my Mum cooks with lots of lemons and oregano which is special because lemon and oregano is used lots in greek food. In Wellington we love going to the greek cafe and getting tiropita and greek chocolate. It is very yummy. Family is very important to us and I love spending time with my Yiayia. I got to spend 6 weeks in Greece with my Yiayia when I was little. Our family is loud when we get together. Greek homes often have doilies and I have some that my Mums Yiayia made. We also have a greek vase that is an example of a vase found in a greek ruin. That is my culture what is yours?
