Dear Sister

 I am writing this letter to tell you about the amazing trip we went yesterday to the Manukau Symphony Orchestra at Due Drop Event center, but year 1 and 2 had to miss out and only years 3 to 6 came on the trip.

We had to board the bus at 11:30am  and would board back to school at 2:00. We weren’t going to bring our bags so we had to eat lunch at morning tea time so we wouldn’t get hungry and starve.  When the bell rang for the end of morning tea  we got on the bus and the ride was about 15 -20 minutes.

 We finally reached the Due Drop Event centre but when we  got off the bus there were other schools that came before us and were leaving  but then other schools came but not all of them were primary. There were 1 or 2 college people or intermediate students. We had to wait for the performers to get ready and do some tries so meanwhile the people that had to go to the bathroom went and the others just sat and talked among themselves.

Finally we got to go inside and take a seat  but there were a lot of people so it took some time for the other classes to get seated, but we did wait and when I got my seat I got the middle one and that was the best place so I was so happy. All the performers were not there yet but some of them that were on stage checked if the instruments were working properly.

When all the performers were there I was so excited  and was ready to listen but everybody was talking. Then the MC came on stage and said a Pepeha and then he explained what is going to happen and introduced the conductor and the leader of each instrument.

Then the conductor signed to start and then the performers played music to start with. I loved the violins because the music of the violin was really calm and beautiful. After the first song they played another one and it was also lovely.

The Mc came onto stage and introduced Suzy Cato who was the storyteller and she used to have her own show. There were 3 stories and she read the first one which was down in the forest and when she read each word the performers played a note and the story sounded more interesting with the music.

 After  The story the conductor introduced the harp and cello player and they played the “ Swan in the lake”. The harp was the lake and the cello was the swan. That was my favourite one because it was so calming and it made me imagine  the beautiful picture.

Next there was another story which was “The Stolen Stars of Matariki”. I read that book and then in the morning at breakfast time my teacher played a video of that story with the orchestra to show how it might be.

Next was another song which was really nice and after was another story which was “ The Emperor and the nightingale” which was really interesting to me and was my second favorite piece of performance.

After the last story The conductor gave us a surprise because then a star wars song was played and there was a disco ball with hundreds and thousands of lights. After the song Suzy was singing goodbye and the college students performed kapa haka to say thank you  and after that the MC, Conductor and Suzy took a photo. Then we boarded the buses and went back to school.

Bye!!

 

On Wednesday 27th of March the senior school at Hay Park went to Orewa beach to learn surfing and to have  a fun time. First we had to come to school early because we had to be prepared and check our bags for hats, lunch,water,jacket and togs plus towel. There was breakfast open for people that didn’t have breakfast but nobody from our class went because everybody already had breakfast. The buses were leaving at 8:50 so at around 8:45 our class splitted into the 2 buses. Me and my friend Zaynab went in room eights bus where we met our friend Blane. The buses were so flashy  because they had curtains, lights, tray tables, arm rest and toilets!  It is so cool that there is a toilet in the bus. To get to Orewa beach we had a 45 minute drive, which was so long but fun.

After a long drive we finally reached to our destination at Orewa. The instructors Toby and Ismara welcomed us  and told us what to beware of like rocks, currents and people.They even told us how to protect yourselves by putting one hand on your head and other on you neck so if you fall than you will not hurt yourself.

After the instructors told us all the information the teachers told the staff about the rotation  and we were doing a beach game with Mrs Patel. We played capture the flag and at first it was so fun but when the  teacher started to take one pipe away I lost and got eliminated. After the game we had options like having a swim, walking down the beach and playing in the sand but most of the people chose to swim and walk along the beach including me. 

After beach games our next rotation was surfing! I was so excited. We first got our wet suits and t-shirts but some people didn’t want to wear the wetsuit so they only wore the t-shirts. First before we surfed in the water the instructor explained the parts like the tail, nose,fins and the leash. Then we had a practice on the sand like jumping up and if we fall, how to fall. Then we finally got to surf in the water. It was kind of tricky at first but then I was having so much fun andI even stood up on my surfboard when a wave came and learned how to surf. Time was up sadly and we had to get changed  but I didn’t want to go and have more time but it was the end. 

We had to get out of our wet suits and then got changed into our uniforms. Next we had lunch and after lunch we played in the playground. We even played tag and hide-n-seek. It was almost time to go back to school so everybody settled down and got ready but room 6 had to change quickly because they were the last class to go surfing and the buses were already here. Finally when everybody was all sorted Mrs Patel did the lost property because some people accidentally took someone else’s uniform and things. After everything was done and the classes were counted everybody boarded on the bus and  I was so tired that I almost fell asleep. Finally, after a 45 minute drive we reached school in time and the bell just rang .

 

Weekly Quiz

In the quiz they give you questions and some options  like for example. There were even visuals where there was picture and they ask you what it is, who it is or where is it.

The challenging part for this activity was looking for the answer because on the page there were lots of answers and we had to figure out which one is the right answer .

Isla and the Dinosaur narrative

 

Kia ora welcome back

Today we had to write a narrative about a girl named Isla and a dinosaur.

Here is my one

 

 

 

Isla couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw a creature like no other. She carefully padded the creature’s head without knowing it was a dinosaur. She felt as if the dinosaur was a new friend, Feeling the hard rough scales it was like feeling concrete rocky ground. Is love is just a little girl she didn’t know the things that could hurt her she wasn’t threatened by the sharp pointy teeth of the Dinosaur. Instead, she kept coming closer and closer. Isla felt a strange connection between the dinosaur and herself. The dinosaur started to like her and came to meet Isla and her treehouse in the middle of the forest. Soon later they started to meet each other a lot and play with each other.   It looked like she had a new pet. To Isla it felt like a pet dog, but strangely to the dinosaur she learned a new language which was dinosaur language,  isla learned how to speak dinosaur. One day when the sun was shining high,  a small ray of sunshine was waiting for her outside. It was the dinosaur that happened but then the world felt like a mother. Isla even learned a new language which was dinosaur language, Isla learned how to speak dinosaur. One day when the sun was high and shining,a small ray peaked through Isla’s window. Isla rubbed her eyes and stood up. The dinosaur was waiting for her to wake up.Isla asked what had happened  but then… the dinosaur ran aways and Isla ran after him  and then when they got there Isla was shocked and amazed because she saw the most magnificent thing in the world . It was the dinosaur forest which everybody wanted to see but never found and when Isla saw it she felt very special . Isla saw ten different 

dinosaurs with spectacular patterns  and colors. The dinosaur wanted Isla to meet his family and he even met his family. After seeing hundreds of animals  Isla thought she should give the dinosaur a name and she named him Rocky because his scales were rocky.  When Isla came back from the dino forest she found a letter outside her house and she got so happy because it was from her grandad, but when she read it her face fell because her granddad was calling her back to the city but Isla couldn’t leave Rocky behind so she decided to take him with her. She was afraid that the people wouldn’t let Rocky come in so before she had let she sent a letter to her grandad and told him about the information so he could warn people to not be scared. Then Isla’s grandad spreaded the information but 2 people didn’t like and didn’t want the dinosaur to come so they decided to kill the dinosaur before they came and the 2 people were big criminals. When Isla was halfway to reach the city she got really thirsty so she said to Rocky “ I will be back, don’t worry and stay here”, Rocky listened. When the 2 criminals saw Isla going they quickly shooted Rocky. Isla heard a huge noise and turned she couldn’t believe what she saw, Rocky was on the floor struggling. Isla ran to the rocky as fast as she could, she looked for help but was hopeless. BUt she saw the 2 criminals going and tried to stop them. It was too late and Rocky was gone, Isla sadly reached home in the city and told her grandpa. Her grandpa asked “ Can you describe the 2 criminals’ ‘?  Isla said “ they had a golden watch and the same rings’ ‘. Her grandad knew who it was and quickly ran to the police station and the police knew who it was and captured them.  When Isla got older she became  a writer and made books about dinosaurs. Guess what the dino’s name was, it was Rocky. One day it was Isla’s lucky day because the minister read Isla’s books and then decided to make a dinosaur museum and named it Rocky’s Dino Museum and the minister made Isla the owner. And she did the grand opening. Isla even had a part time job which was dino protection so at 3pm in the afternoon Isla would go to the dino forest  with her team and takes good care of the dinosaurs. Isla was really famous  and known till then Isla was remembered as Isla the great discovery.
