Production Rehearsals

Hello everyone
This term we have been very busy with doing Production Rehearsals, and practising our lines. This year we are doing a production, it is called Jasmine and Aladdin. I am Jasmine in our production. She is one of the main characters. We have been doing lots of our rehearsals after school, and on a Friday in the middle block. Miss McGrath is the teacher that is running the production. She is the producer and director. Miss McGrath has also arranged the whole script. Our production is not until Term Four.

We are given a schedule for what days we are on rehearsals. If our name is on a specific day that means you have to go to rehearsals that day. At rehearsals we would have 15 minutes to go to the toilet, have a drink of water, and have something to eat. Then we would run through a scene or two. Then on a Friday we would try, and run though some of our script with everyone.

I look forward to seeing how our prouduction turns out in Term Four.

Matariki

 Talofa Lava Everyone!

This week we have been doing a lot of things to do with Matariki. Matariki is a time when we gather with our family and share kai. It is when the seven sisters / Stars come out. It  is also when the Maori new year comes. On Thursday we did three activties on Matariki.

The first thing we did was Stop Motion Animation. We had to retell a Matariki story or part of a Matariki story using stop motion animation. We had to plan what we were going to do and then make backgrounds and charaters. The second thing I did was making Manu Tukutuku. We had to make patterns and us them to make a kite. We wove cardboard patterns onto a bamboo frame. My third activitie was did was making fried bread. We got to make it and then eat it with nutella or something.

Cross Country

Hello Bloggers. I'm back✌❤
On Thursday we had Cross Country. Cross Country is when we have a fun day with games and activities as well as having to run around the school. The year sixs had to run and organise all the activites. The juniors, middles and year fives rotated around each activity. There were 5 activites with the 6th being the run. There was handball, tennis, warm up area, a blindfold game the playground and last but not least, the run. For the run, the juniors had to run one lap and the middles and seniors ran two. The activity that I helped run was handball. If you don't know what handball is, it is a game where you bounce the ball in your square and into someone elses. Everyone rotated between each of them and then we had to pack it all up.
Then it was time for the year six's to run and the whole school was going to watch. The first people who ran were the boys followed by the girls. For the girls, Angelina came first than it was Jaimie,  Rael came third place than me, Brittany with fourth place. After our run, we got to have some lunch. I had so much fun with helping out with the games.
