Manaiakalani

    Manaiakalani

Today was the Manaiakalani Film Festival Day. The theatre was packed with children like me and Genevieve.
There were other children from Point England School, Glen Taylor School and Glen Innes School. 

Our class was represented by Soane who introduced our movie “Richness in Diversity” to the audience.
We also watched some twenty other movies from the four schools.

I learnt a lot about planet earth, pollution, friendship and resilience from these movies.
I felt very excited and I can not wait to see all the movies presented by the other schools in our cluster

Today I took part in the maths week challenge. I answered all the questions correctly.

Book week in schools

This week was a book week. There was a play performed in our school hall on Tuesday.

The play was about the Treasure Hunt that has been written by Craig Christie.

There were two tribes living on an island. These two tribes blamed each other for stealing each other's songs.

The Treeland tribe was led by George and the Seaview tribe was led by Jessica. These two characters teamed up to solve the problem about the lost treasure that was their song.

The problem was solved when they were able to put the torn map together and work out how to get to the treasure.  They had to read three different books to solve the problem.

I really enjoyed this play because both the characters were very smart and talented. They sang very well and were also very hilarious.

Thank you, Sam and Lydia, for coming to our school. We hope to see you again next year.
