One day during last Term Ofa entered the "Firewise Mad Movie Challenge" for our writing group. As the bell rang Miss G dismissed everyone else but she asked our writing group to stay seated on the mat. Suddenly with a blast she told us that Ofa entered the firewise mad movie challenge for studio 2, so we needed to film a movie that was only 3 minutes, it had to have the dialogue " Come On Guys Get Firewise" and we had to use the firealarm that they sent us. We were all amazed and excited. Before we had to film we had to write our script, storyboard what we had done and present it to Miss G. It was then time to film so the actors that were going to be in the movie needed to start bringing their pyjamas to school so we could get started. Now I'm going to break down some parts of our movie and tell you a little about it. Our movie is about Alex and Daisy's father whose off to work in the morning but is also taking a nightshift, so Alex decides to have a sleepover with her 2 besties Danielle and Olivia. Later on Daisy starts to make a big racket so Alex sends Daisy off who is only 7 years old to make popcorn for her and her besties to eat. Next all of the characters start to forget about the popcorn and just keep playing games not knowing that the popcorn is on FIRE. Suddenly the firealarm goes on and they all start panicking. But how will they be firewise??????
..........Pick us STUDIO 2........PLEASE!!!!!!!

The Tummy Beast
This photo that is appearing is a storyboard that my classmates and I have been doing. My storyboard illustrates parts of a poem called The Tummy Beast written by Roald Dahl. We have been reading alot of fantastic poems written by great imaginative poets, like On the Ning Nang Nong, The hampster on a skateboard and lots more enjoyable ones. This storyboard is about a little boy who thinks a beast is inside his tummy, so he goes ahead and moans to his mother and tells her the story. I was so surprised when we read this poem because I thought that Roald Dahl was only a book author but he is also a poet too.

Sit Back, Relax And Get Ready To Sing Songs For The KIDS 4 KIDS CHOIR FESTIVAL!
Yesterday a whole bunch of schools combined together and sung songs with smiles on their faces.
As the curtains settled away some students were looking for their parents, teachers and some were waving at the audience. It was now time to start. Before the curtains opened Mat spoke on the microphone and gave instructions to the audience to follow and welcomed Dan (who was controlling the sound), Brett (who was our conductor), Jaydyn (who organised everything for us) and our special guest Suzanne Prentice. There were more people in the crowd than students who were going to sing.
We sang alot of songs that made the audience proud.I was so nervous and scared because I was going to sing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' by myself in front of more than 100 people. When it was time for me to sing, Suzanne asked me to come up to the front and sing my solo. As I got up to sing I got stagefright because everyone was staring at me like I did something wrong. When I sang my last part of the song everyone clapped. Waterlily sang too, she nearly made Miss G cry.
After we sang 'Let It Be' Suzanne showed us a movie to promote World Vision. It was also about a girl named Elizabeth who visited people that don't have the things we have right now and who need our help. I felt very sad but at the same time I wanted to sing more songs before our half time break, so we sang Heal the World. That was a great song that suited the movie because it was all about the world and was kind of meaning that if God can Heal the people who has nothing we can try too.
Next Suzanne asked the parents that when they went into the foyer you could look at the photos of the people who wanted to get helped. After that it was time for our break so the curtains closed and each row got off the stage. Starting off with row 1 ect.
On our break some kids were playing hand games, running around, talking to eachother and eating a little snack. Next Chris our choir teacher gave out coloured snakes to us. Later on it was time to get back on the stage, so we did the same thing before we started. When we were all ready the curtains settled back again. It then came to an end so we all headed off the stage. Next I went outside to look for my Parents. Suddenly I saw Miss G and Waterlily so I walked over to them. When Miss G saw me she cuddled me and said that I sang really good, so I thanked her and kept trying to find my parents. After that I finally found my Dad so I walked to him.I told him that lots of people were saying that Waterlily and I sang really well. When we left my Mum bought me, my siblings and my cousin M'c Donalds because we were all starving.
What a great pleasure to sing with lots of talented schools.

Music!!
It's Time to go Music Everybody!!!! Every Wednesday and Thursday we have music at school. Sometimes we don't because our Music Teacher Mrs Carter is maybe busy or is feeling sick. Each class gets time on Wednesday or Thursday to sing songs and play music with Mrs Carter.
We have music in our new Multi-Purpose-Room. We also have music groups which are Choir, Marimba, Ukulele, Guitar and Recorder. The choir group works really hard to learn the words for their songs for their CHOIR FESTIVAL that is coming up very soon. The other music groups are having festivals as well but they are happening in October and November. I am in the Choir and Marimba group which is really fun.

Morning Tea!
On a hot Monday morning the noisy, annoying bell rang two times. After the bell rang me and my friends rushed to our bags to get our delicious lunches. I ate a packet of nutricious shapes and a juicy apple.
When I ate all my lunch I went to the courts to play kingball. When the game started everyone ran everywhere. I never got out in kingball because I kept jumping high like Ofa. I was having a lot of fun. When more people were getting out, they were getting good at getting people out. It was so hard when other kids were playing other games like basketball and touch. Whn the bell rang, I tried to run out, so I can be safe. When I ran out I tried to push through others because they were all bunched up like a big crowed ball. When I made it out I sprinted fast to line up. I was hot, seaty and exahusted.
What a great Day!!!!!

Time To Run, Play and Chant!
The weather was cold it was like somebody was in a freezer and the wind was blowing the leaves off the trees like a tornado.
Straight after our school mass, we all came back to class to get ready for athletics. When we came to class, Miss G told us we could get changed into our athletics gear. When I was all dressed I sat down peacefully.
Suddenly the bell chimed through my ears, like I was listening to something really noisy. Next I went outside to play king ball in the tennis courts. No one was playing so I popped over to the field where the running lanes were. Some kids were running around and some were racing each-other. I was feeling bored, so I asked Ofa for a race. We came a tie.
The moment finally arrived. I was getting nervous more and more. My heart was beating like I can’t breathe. First race was the 5 year old’s. When it was time for the 10 year old’s I got up slowly like an old lady. Bang the blocks went!!. Yay I was coming first. Later on in the heat race I came second. I was really happy with what I came. After lunch it was time to start the novelty races. We played fun games like a wheelbarrow race and a marble on a spoon.
Athletics then came to an end. Geckos won, “Hooray” Geckos shouted, chanted, yelled, and screamed. My ears were getting really sore. It was hometime, so I walked with Ofa to her house.
What a fun tiring experience I had.
