The Show about The Emperor New Clothes

The Emperor’s New Clothes

On Saturday the 4th of July, My Mum, Dad,Sister and Brothers went to the ASB showgrounds in Greenlane. We went there at the 4:00 show and there was lots of  people there. We went there by Van.

First we went into the ASB showgrounds, we went to the upstairs so we can see a better view, there was this Man on Stage and he said hi to everyone (He was the Host).

Next the show started and everybody was cheering for those people that were taking part in the show.

Then the show started with two thieves and they were sick of being bad so they were deciding that they would try to be good people. They tricked the Emperor and stole some of the Emperor’s things like his Blanket.

The Emperor was very vain and was always dressing up in new clothes. His clothes were very expensive, he didn't care how he got the clothes he just wanted it. He had four mirrors to look at himself, he would say how beautiful he looked in his new clothes. Later there was some singing and Dancing from these little kids that were taking part in the show they were really good at dancing.

After we all had a 20 minute break so some people can buy there food for yourself or for their Family and My Mum went to buy some chips for us.

Finally the Emperors last new clothes made him look silly, because the thieves who pretended to be tailors made him clothes of nothing.  The people saw that the Emperor had no clothes on and soon the Emperor realized that he had no clothes.  At the end they sang a song that said it doesn't matter what you look like you are beautiful the way you are.

Malama Honua Event

On a hot sunny Wednesday Morning,Glenbrae school students walked to Pt. England beach to see the wakas Hourua Hokule’a and the Hikianalia that had come from Hawaii.  When we got there, we quickly settled down on the grass and waited first the crew to come a shore.

When the crew started coming to the shore in a small speed boat,  all the schools sang a waiata called E Oho and we kept on singing until everyone was on the shore.

Then the Kau matua welcomed all the crew to Pt. England with speech and then the children sang another waiata and did the haka.

Lastly, all the schools had to go down to the beach and hi 5 the Hawaiian crew.  Then we all got into our school lines and walked back to our schools.

Anti Bullying

Thursday 12th March 2015 

WALT: I am learning to write a Recount in Paragraphs. 

On Wednesday the 11th of March 2015 in the morning Room 10 and the year 7s in Room 9 had to lined up and walked to the School hall because we were having a  workshop about anti bullying with Petia Wilson and Leah Tuia. We were with Leah because Caroline was not here but we did not mind.

 We discussed about different cultures and the different types of cultures to which we belong, they are Samoans, Tongans, Maoris,Niueans, Africans and Cook Islanders. Then we went in to groups according to the cultures that we belong to. The Samoans in the corner and Tongans in the other corner and each culture was in a corner or in the middle.They gave us a paper one each for a group and we were asked to write about the greetings, language we speak, what important to us and so on.They told us to write it down and then we can do a dance or sing a song.The Tongan group sang a song, the Niuean did a song and were dancing at the same time,the Maori did a Pukana and Hongi and Last of all the Samoa’s did a samoan dance.

The only South African was Samuel but he spoke what he wrote on the paper, he was shy but I was happy because he was brave enough to stand up and speak. After all the Singing and Dancing Petia drew the picture of Hulk because he is a super hero. He played the music called “don’t forget your family and friends” it was very good. Petia was amazing because the picture he drew looked like the real Hulk.

After all ended we lined up and went back to class. It was very good and we all enjoyed by knowing our culture and also other cultures.
