Fun Day at Corban Estate by Matthew

On Thursday we all went in a  big bus to the    InterAct Art Festival. First, we went into the big hall where we had our morning tea. After our Morning tea, I went to watch a show of people dancing.  The show was great to watch. I then went into the next Hall where there were a lot of art things to do. I drew a self-portrait on a large paper on the wall.

I also did other colouring activities. I enjoyed the wearable arts.  I wore a mask and walked in the wearable Arts parade. We waited on the sidewalk for a long time before our bus

arrived.

Inter ct Art Festivel By Joel

On Thursday I went to the InterAct Art Festival in Henderson with my class and the two other classes. First of all, we travelled in three cars to get to the base school. I went into Val's car. Next, we went onto a bus to get to the festival. When we got there we went inside and I first painted a picture with a lot of patterns on it. Then I went and made a hat. I made a dog hat. After that, we all went and watched some performers. Matthew, Kyi Kyaw and Kaine took part in the wearable arts parade. Next, we had lunch and us to the top sidewalk to try and get a bus to take us back to school, but our bus got cancelled so we had to wait on the grass for another bus to come. Finally, when the new bus came we went onto it and it took us back to the base school where the taxi picked me up. I had a really awesome time at the arts festival.

On  Thursday 6th of July, our class went to the America's Cup tickertape parade. We saw the dancing, airport band, Police cars and motorbikes. My favourite part was the airport band. The weather was raining and sunny. I saw  Peter Burling. I was soaking wet.   I felt both happy and nervous that I met Peter Burling. I was waiting for a long time. I was holding my  New Zealand flag.  I really enjoyed it.

My Trip to the Museum by Joel

Yesterday we went to Downtown Auckland to go to the Maritime Museum and a Harbour Cruise. First, we went into a van to get there. When we got there we went inside the museum. Then the lady introduced the museum. Before we had a look inside, we had morning tea. After that, we went inside to look at the boats and ships. The lady gave us maps to get around the museum. I saw a big team New Zealand boat and we played a ship game they had there. After a while, we went back outside and had lunch. As we were eating our lunch we saw a man lighting a canon. The canon was really really loud. Then we got ready to go onto the boat. First I felt really nervous. When we got onto the boat, I was sitting upstairs. The ship was riding past. I saw the  Ports of Auckland and a view of the city. It even went under the Harbour Bridge. I saw some bungy jumping from the bridge. I had a really fun time at the Maritime Museum and on the ship.

Our song performance at Te Oro by Joel

Yesterday we went to Te Oro to perform our Rivers of Tamaki song to 12 other schools. First of all, we went into the van to get there. When we got to Te Oro, there were lots of other people. But before we performed our song, we went and looked at other schools things. I saw one of the schools has made a fake polluted river and some fake land. Next, we lined up ready to perform our song. But we had to wait for the little ones to finish doing their show. Then we went up to the stage and Hills introduced our song and the instruments we made for it. One example is the larger phone. The larger phone has bottle tops from the Tamaki Rivers. Next, we started to sing our song. We sang with EWC 2. After we sung our song, we turned around to went out to the van. I had a really fun time performing our song at Te Oro.

Keeping our Beaches Clean By Joel

Yesterday we went to Farmcove Beach to see the local waterway. We went in the big Toyota van. When we got there we went for a walk around the beach and we saw lots of new houses and boats. After that, we went into the sand area of the beach  and picked up some rubbish. After that we went and played in the “Snakes and Ladders” on the Snakes and Ladders playground that they had there. First some one had to roll the dice and had to go up along ladders and go down by slides. We also went on the exercise machines by the carpark.  I had a really fun time at the beach and I hope we will go to look at other waterways in the near future.
