Wishes do come true

This movie was made by Ocean, Haelyn, Paris and Dakota. It is about having a wish and who knows one days they might come true, even if you are an ugly girl who dreams of becoming a beautiful princess. We hope you enjoy.

Tane

For the film festival we made a movie based around Boy and Hunt for the Wilderpeople. We had lots of fun making this, especially coming up with funny lines to use. We hope you enjoy.

CAR POOL KARAOKE

Room 6 was on the final assembly for the term. We had some fun making this video to share. We each had 10 minutes in the car to created our little bits. We are waiting to see the bloopers version, cause there was  few. Watch this space.

Everyone wants the latest toy ' the paddle board'. This was another ad for the Fair Go ad Awards by Jayda, Alisi and Tyissa.

Bubble Plastic

Bubble Plastic. We made some ads for the Fair Go Ad awards. We had to sell a product from the 70s.  This was what Haelyn, Alex and Ocean created.

Year 7/8 Ski Camp

In Week 4 the Year 7 and 8's went on an amazing ski camp to Mount Ruapehu. We visited Otorohanga to see the Kiwiana walkway on the way down. It was a long trip taking around 9 hours!
We stayed at The Crossings Backpackers in National Park and spent 2 days in perfect conditions skiing down Happy Valley. Some of us even got so good we were allowed to go up to the next level which was steeper, harder and way more exhilarating. We also visited the Waiuru Army Museum, which has awesome exhibitions with actual military equipment and weapons, hilarious staff and we participated in a fun activity where we were given a 'Rat Pack' to cook. Pretty delicious kai for packaged food!
We had such a cool time and enjoyed every minute! Back to the real world now.

Tuhi Mai Tuhi Atu

Aroha mai to all our Tuhi Mai Tuhi Atu classes. We are in the process of making ads and short movies so have not been on our blogs recently. Watch this space though, there will be some cool stuff to look at in the near future, and we are looking forward to checking out what you have all been up to next week.

Jack and Josh Goodhue came to Visit

Today we were fortunate enough to have Jack and Josh Goodhue, two former students of Kawakawa Primary and now professional rugby players, come to visit us at school. They talked about the importance of trying hard in everything at school, even if you are not the best at it, of being resilient and learning from mistakes and to work hard to become what ever you want in life. Such inspiring words from very humble men. Thank you for taking the time to come back.

Hinepau Show

On Tuesday we were fortunate to have the Hinepau production come to school. It was a show about the Maori legend, Hinepau, which highlighted the importance  of looking after Papatuanuku and celebrating differences. The show was entirely in Te Reo which was a first for many of us, but we got the concept of the story from the amazing actors, captivating waiata, and stunning costumes and props. Very cool show!

Cross Country

Today we had our annual school cross country. We all had a blast! Lots of mud, mud fights and heaps of laughs. Perfect day! We even got to travel there and back on the train!
