Wow….. it was our class’ turn to host the school assembly this week and what an excellent job all the students did!
We started with a reading from the bible about using the talents we have all been given then 2 people shared the prayers they had written.
We had spent time reviewing the key attributes of e learner at St Patrick’s school and each person in the class had picked an attribute then made a star with a name of another person in the school who they had seen showing the attributes. It was great to see their faces light up as they were chosen.
Next we showed the Samoan Sasa that we have been working on in dance. Our friend Matalena had taught us some of the basic actions and we had looked for ideas from other dances then she helped us put them together to make our own R3 Sasa. It was good the way she told us the stories around the actions so we were not disrespectful to her culture. We did a pretty good job for our first time in front of an audience.
What do you think of our performance? What do you think went well? and what do we have to brush up on?
Watch and enjoy.
I totally agree Mrs G we did extremely well with the sasa one of our best performances don’t you think?
It was really hard to be the leader but after a while it kind of just sank into my system. Plus we didn’t mess up, it was also really cool that Matalena let us do what we want to do at the end we chose the macaraina. The part I found tricky was to do the callings louder, and sound like I was in control.
Just before we went I got a little bit of the stage fright but it passed and me and Raymond started off strongly. Also the lava lava’s looked awesome on all of us.
I agree it was a great performance and we did well don’t we all look great in out lava lava’s.I think we all did well with all the practices we did and it all payed off.I think that everyone enjoyed it and the junior school was really enjoying it and they were doing the actions with us.And the parents enjoyed it too.I think it was one of our best performances we have ever done.

Yea, I agree with bith of you! I tiught that it was challenging doing the drumming and being in control as much as daniel. It took a while for me to get the beat and I prctised all time! I think that assembly was one of the best all year!
