Transform yourself on stage, into any character you want! Come along on our inquiry journey in Term 2!

Our Pt England Way is to always kick start the term with an immersion assembly. Today was no different. Our management team started off with an introduction of the topic. Our theme is Transformers which is all about the drama. My favourite one was team 3 with their Matilda act. Bobby-jon was eating a piece of the mistresses chocolate cake. He had gotten caught because he burped very loud and the mistress caught him. So as a punishment, he had to eat all the chocolate cake or he would get a different punishment. So as he tried his best to eat all the cake the rest of the teachers sang a song almost like a musical. He continued to eat and as the mistress came along getting in his face, he then smudged cake all over the mistresses face ending the act off with cheers and laughter.

Team 5 teachers acted act Cinderella on stage – but the Roald Dahl version. It was funny as and our teachers did a good job acting it all out. I am looking forward to our inquiry this term and learning more about performing arts/drama.

Hi everyone! This week my literacy class has been reading a text called Mata I Pusi. It is about a girl who didn’t like herself because she was Samoan and palagi but she didn’t look Samoan enough so she got  made fun of at school. Today I have made a wordart and my outline was a person. The reason why I Picked a person is because I think it is most related to the text. I put in about 12 keywords for the inside of my person. This basically means that the main girl is the person and all of those words are stuck inside of her and she is very stressed about it. Thank you for checking out our class blog. Bye!

At the start of each year, our teachers introduce themselves to the whole team through their Pepeha. Some even say it in their own languages. Here is Levi’s pepeha he completed in Term 1. Don’t miss the last slide which is a video of him delivering his pepeha at the end of the term.

This year Room 2 decided to have some fun with the game ‘read my lips’ but we’ve dubbed it ‘Guess the Korero’.

Can you try and guess what they’re saying? Put it on mute and see if you can guess too!

This was a lot of fun to make, please leave us a comment!
