The beginning of shopping!

Today we went shopping for presents! We wrapped them and had lots of laughs too, it took awhile for us to wrap them but we got through it. It was real fun. Here are some photos that I took.

Ambassador Application

Task Description: Hey guys! So today I made a video for my ambassador application. I worked very hard to make it my best so remember to always comment! I put a little bit about myself and what I like to do. Hope you enjoy!

Flight of the bumblebee

Today we listened to a song called flight of the bumblebee.  This song was composed by a Russian man named Rimsky Korsakov.  He was born in the year 1844 and sadly passed away in the year 1908 meaning he passed away at the age of 64. We first listened to his song then drew a picture imagining what you thought the song was telling you. I imagined that there was a helicopter that went out of fuel and suddenly crashed into the mountains.

Live Stream Production

Today was the first day of Live Stream, our production! All of us were great on stage and we all worked very hard to make it the best!

I have been given the opportunity to play a lead character in our school production called, Live Stream. I am playing the part of Puke, who is a Pukeko that lives next to Omaru Creek. I am one of the characters that helps an Eel named Tuna try and find a better home, as Omaru Creek is no longer liveable because of the pollution. We go exploring a range of other places that Tuna could live in but realise that Omaru Creek is still the best place for Tuna to live. But only if we clean it up and get rid of all of the pollution.

I had to learn a whole lot of lines and even helped to create some of these. We then got to share our production with our community over three separate evening shows. I then shared a highlights movie onto my blog to show my followers all of my hard work.Thanks to all the people that made this possible.

Please watch our highlights movie below.

Pt England describing a setting

I see fluffy clouds floating in the air and I see a really bright sunshine. I smell the fresh air flowing around the place and I taste the little raindrops falling into my mouth. Pt England is not an ecosanctuary place this means that there are predators in this place. This is a beautiful environment.

Maui and the giant fish voiceover

This is the story of Maui and the giant fish. One day Maui was starving to eat some  food so he grabbed his waka and set sail to find a perfect spot to fish. Soon after he found his spot so he threw out his hook and waited for a while. After a few minutes later he felt the rope pulling him so he pulled and pulled  and up came a giant fish. About 3 thousand years that fish became New Zealand. This story links to the environment because it tells us how new Zealand was made and because if we didn't have enough we would have to share the food out equally.
