This week we had a production, we recreated Oliver twist. we practiced for about 3 weeks and all the main cast were very good at acting and knowing their lines. I really enjoyed the show it was a great experience and there were some really funny parts. The setup was amazing with the stage,lights, speakers, curtains, mics and backdrops that were created by people in our hub and staff,they were incredible. Overall I was amazed by the show and everyone involved.

has your school ever done a production? if so what was it about?

Hi, not that long ago I went to Rarotonga. It’s a very nice island with clear water and nice gold sand. Its very hot in rarotonga. We spent most days by the pool and snorkeling, there were lots of tropical fish I saw a rainbow it was very cool. On Thursday we went on a boat to another island we were jumping off the boat and snorkeling we saw some turtles and a very big Moray eel. After snorkeling we hopped back on the boat and kept heading to the island. Once we arrived there were some nice lunch ready for us and a volleyball net we all played a game and finished eating. I loved going to Rarotonga it was one of my favorite places i’ve been to.

Have you ever been to an island?

Last week we did artwork about R.E. We had the option to colour it with pencils, pastels or watercolour. We made one about the last supper, the crucifixion and the resurrection. we made a draft picture and then we got a small piece of card, we had to fill the entire page.

Every Monday we do the Gospel and we answer some questions about this weeks Gospel. Sometimes the questions can be hard but most of the time they are not.

Kia ora, last week we did a fact file about Mary. And we learnt why the rosary is so significant. we also had to write one of the mysteries about the rosary and what it means. Mary´s real name is actually Maryam. She had a family of five including her, Jesus, Saint Anne, Saint Joseph, & Joachim. Mary was very loving and helped people a lot, she was very kind.

Here is my fact file.

Do you do r.e? have you been learning about saints if you have what saints?

Hello welcome back to my blog.

This week we have been learning about the Olympics. We had to pretend we were in the Olympics in the olden days and what it would be like. I did what it would be like doing running, long jump and discus. At the old Olympics they had to run with shields and for long jump they had to hold weights.

Two days ago we had an Olympian come in her name was Andrea Hewitt she did triathlons we were very lucky to have her.
