Production

Our school production this year was Pasifica Peter Pan (a twist on an old classic). We started rehearsing early last term and presented to an audience last week, with three performances (two in the evening and one Friday matinee show).  Our song at the end was one of our Jump Jam songs.  The senior syndicate had major and minor roles, both on stage and behind the scenes. The rest of the school performed cultural dances from around the Pacific. Shows were sold out and audiences were treated to a spectacular performance. An amazing end result from all our hard work! Well done! 

2018 Athletics day

 Ciao bloggers, on the second of November, we had Athletics Day. Athletics Day is all about getting outside with the school and celebrating a day, where we can all work together and communicate. On Athletics Day we had a rotation that we did. In that rotation we had different activities like Team Building , High Jump , Shot Put and 400 metre dash . At the start of the day we sat in our age groups outside on the senior court. The ten and eleven year old girls were together and ten and eleven year old boys were together, and all the other ages were all separate. If we wanted to, we could come in our house group colours which were;  Blue (RURU),  Red (KEA),  Green (Puekeko)  and  Yellow ( TUI) or we could just come in mufti. I was in the ten and eleven girls group. We had Shot Put first. In some of the things that we did, we had placings as well which was  1st to 4th place. In Shot Put, me and my friend Jasmine  got placed. I got 1st place and s...

Writing tumble

Malo e lelei bloggers, in the last couple of weeks we have been doing a writing tumble, where we had to write about a picture in a moment in time. After that we could pick a picture and write about in any style of writing. Either another Moment In Time, Creative writing or a poem. Our goal in those couple of weeks, was we had to at least finish two pieces of writing. We also had the choice of which piece of writing we wanted to start on. My teacher Mr R gave us some good information, which was pick one that you like and one that you don't like. My favorite piece of writing in a moment in time was The Rocky Slippery Slide. The Creepy Stalker was my least favorite because I didn't really find the picture interesting. The style of writing I choose was creative writing. The pictures I picked was a dunger computer and an email logo. When I was finished my writing on the computer picture, I sent my work to my friend Zoe to read over it. The feedback she gave was "I really enjoy...

ABOUT THE AUTHOR JOY COWLEY

Hi bloggers, this week I made a slide show up about an author called Joy Cowley. She has written many books that my class have read. One of them was Snake and Lizard . It was all about these to friends one was a lizard and one of them was a snake. I have also been reading a book called Dunger which is all about when they go on holiday with their grandparents. My slideshow is telling everyone about the author Joy Cowley and some facts about her, like how old she, where she lives and some books she wrote. If you are going to read one of her books leave a comment on what book you read, and if it was a good book. My favorite book is Snake and lizard because I like reading about their journeys with each other. Here is my slideshow about Joy Cowley, Hope you enjoy.
