Revolution Tour

Hi guys, I have another post for you and this time it's about the Revolution Tour who came to our school last week on Thursday. The Revolution Tour came to the hall so they could talk to us about things. As my class walked into the hall a guy named Reggie walked on the stage and introduced us to him and the other people. Reggie introduced us to this girl who came up and sang Let it go for us. After her performance was over Reggie started talking to us and he taught us some american moves and some things that american people say like alright Alright Alright. After a few more performances Reggie told us a sad story about his childhood. He told us that his mother gave him up and took him to an orphanage but he has 2 sister and  brother but his mother kept the others but gave him up and it made some people cry but then again he turned our frown up side down and made us laugh again. Reggie played a song and told everyone to stand up and do the running man challenge but some people stayed sitting cause they didn't know how to do it or they were crying and thinking about Reggie's story. Once it was over everyone went back to class to get ready to go back home.

I Luminate Brainstorm

Hi guys, I'm doing a blog post about the I Luminate people who came to our school to perform us a dance. As my class walked into the hall it was so dark u couldn't even see anything which was good because I Luminate people came up on the stage dancing and we didn't even notice all we saw was a light which was their costume. Their costumes had lights on it which was so cool. The I Luminate people were so good at dancing everyone kept cheering for them which gave them more energy to dance. Thank you for reading this please leave a comment if you have any questions or if you just want to say something.

Yr 8 Leadership Camp!!!

As my partner Ashley and I hopped on to the bus we were so excited but we just tried to keep it cool. As everyone on the little bus waited for the teachers to take a seat we were finally off to camp. It was such a long ride to camp some people fell asleep. Uli was sitting across from me and I told the girls in the front to give me the camera to take a photo of him and once I had finished taking that photo he had woken up and everyone tried not to laugh but we all tried to act natural before he notices we took a photo of him. Another hour went by and Mrs Tele’a fell asleep right in front of me and I tried to take a photo of her with the camera but before I even pressed that button she had woken up like she knew we were gonna take a photo of her but luckily for me I was sitting behind her so she didn’t see me and I didn’t get in trouble.

Finally the last hour had went passed and we were finally at Marden point. As everyone hopped off the bus so excitedly we grabbed all the bags from the bus and put them on the deck. We also had to sit on the deck as well so Mrs Tele’a can have a quick talk with us and then she introduced us to Michael and Venetia who are the owners of the camp. Michael decided to show us around and the first place he showed us was the archery but as we got there it started pouring with rain. All of us ran as fast as we could to the hall and on our way there we picked up all the bags and chucked them in the hall before they get wet. We had another talk with Mrs Tele’a in the hall  then she told us to get our morning tea. After everyone ate up we went into the lounge to play some amazing activities. The first activity we played was that we had to blindfold the whole team but not the team leaders because the team leaders had to guide them through the obstacle course. I was the team leader for one tree point A and I found it really hard because I had to go back and forth to make sure my team doesn’t get out of line and to make sure they don’t hit anything. Later on that day we played more activities and one of the hard activity’s we did was that we had to tie our hands together and make fruit kebabs.  Before everyone went to sleep we had a choice to watch a movie or stay in the cabban and stayed in the cabban with some other girls and all we did was eat lollies which was fun.

The next day We finally got to do our activity’s. First we had breakfast then we had to go to the lounge to get the list of what activities we were going to do. First up was archery it and it was so much fun because we just kept on laughing at people who missed the target. Next up it was Fire pit and we did this with Ms Flavelle and we got to make cookies it was really fun and we got to do it by our selves.

Our next activity was FLYING FOX! The flying fox was so fun and I was so excited to go on it but once I climbed all those stares it was so scary but once I jumped off it was so much fun I just kept going on over and over again. And our last final activity was the WATER SLIDE!!! The water slide was so much fun I can't even explain how fun it was. Later on that day it was pasifika night and it was so much fun seeing everyone dance and just enjoying themselves I really enjoyed hanging out with you year 8's and I hope we can do it again some day.

Thank you so much teachers and parent's for coming 

along it was so fun and I hope we can do something 

like this again !!!!

Immersion Assembly

Hello, today is the 2nd of March which means it's the first day of school. The first thing the school did in the morning was that we had to go to the hall and have our school immersion assembly. As my class room sat down we saw all the teachers wearing different cool costumes for our immersion assembly. Mrs Nua was the first person to come up and tell us what's going and she also told us that our new topic is As I see it. Mrs Nua also told us that Mr Burt and Mrs Burt couldn't make it because they are on the waka Hine Moana and travelled to France in Paris.

Mrs Nua asked Team 1 to come up and they had a movie to show us and it was about what their favourite thing is. Ms George made a film of what her favourite thing is and along with the other teachers and once the film was over Ms George asked us questions about the film to see if we were paying attention.

Next up is Team 2 and they also had a film to show us which was about seasons. What I enjoyed about their film was that they had a lot to show us about seasons like what they would do in Winter, Autumn, Summer and Spring.

Up next is Team 3 and their movie was about working together as they build their tent. I liked how they worked together as a team and because they worked together they managed to finish building that tent together.

Second to last was Team 4 and they movie was so cool because each teacher were superhero's and they had to defeat the evil teddy bear. Mrs Moala and Miss West thought they could defeat the evil teddy bear but they failed the teddy bear won. As Mrs Moala and Miss West were trapped Mr Somerville, Miss Lavakula and Mr Goodwin were there to save them. In the end the teddy bear died and the superhero's won and so team 4 are learning about superhero's

And Last but no least Team 5 was next but this time they had no movie they did a performance for us but it was a race. It was a waka race and Ms Garden was green Hokule'a, Mrs Tele'a was Blue Hinemoana, Miss Berry was red Te Aurere and Miss Sadler was yellow Hikianlia. Miss Clark yelled 3,2,1 go and the waka's were racing Miss Berry and Miss Sadler were losing by miles but Ms Garden and Mrs Tele'a were going so fast but there was only one winner which was Ms Garden.
