Mr Jacobson's talent

As part of this terms topic "musical madness" Mr Jacobson showed us some amazing instruments that we didn't even know existed. He talked to us about the different wind instruments from around the world, and when they were invented. 

My Favourite Instrument that Mr Jacobson showed us was the Shofar. They are made by cutting off the horns of rams horns. As he blowed the Shofar it made a deep sound that is used to communicate to people that a far away from you. 

The End of term 3!!!

It’s the last day of term 3! This term has gone to fast, there is only One more term until it’s Christmas! I am really sad to see the year end so fast, I am going to miss all my friends, and also teachers. But it's alright because they is only one more term, and once it hits term 4 I am going to spend every moment's with my year 8's friends.

This Morning we had our final assembly for term 3. It was a really long assembly but I really enjoyed the assembly with some special things happening, in the morning. As Soon as assembly started I really exit iced to see my friends going up to the stage to celebrate the win of coming first for the sevens Tournament. I was really proud of the Sevens teams, because they had practise everyday and all the practises was payed off.

After they got their medals and we all clapped for them, They then sang their song that they have been practising while they were at Tauranga. Then the Moment I have been waiting for, Their Haka. I was nearly in tears, while they were doing their aka. It was a emotional assembly, but it was all worth the practise, for the sevens.

If the girls went Tauranga do you think we would've came first as well? I am really proud of my friends . This is going to be the last post for this term.

Samoa's writing about the assembly on Monday

Today on Monday Pt England School had assembly, and our teachers was dressed up into costume. And when I arrived in the hall I saw Mrs nua, and Mrs Garden and some prefect and Mr Jacobsen. Mrs Nua was cooking the pancakes and Mrs garden was putting cream on top of the pancakes.

Then it was team 1, miss George was coming to the front of the hall and she was talking about healthy body and lunch, then team 1 teachers and also the prefect was handing out healthy food, like carrots and sandwich.

Then next it was team 2, they did a play about winnie the pooh Eeyore the donkey Miss Berry and she was pretending that she was sad because she didn't like her house. And the piglet was Mrs Nalder and then she came up and gave miss Berry an idea, “she said to paint her house. And the tigger was miss Eadie, then she came up and then gave Mrs Berry an idea, and said” you should make an bouncy house. Then the last one was Miss Rapold, she was winnie the pooh.

Next it was us team 4!! we were doing a game and it was all about team 4 teachers were pretending that they were superhero, and Mr Somerville was in the game first and he was versing Mr Baxendine. And Mr Baxendine lost, next it was Miss Lavakula. Miss lavakula lost, Mrs Jacobsen was next and her weapon was a fish and she was versing Mr Somerville. And Mr Somerville lost, and Mrs Jacobsen won the game!

Furthermore it was team 5, which was the year 7&8. and the teachers were pretending that there were soldiers, they were marching to the front of the hall and mrs tele’a was the leader and she was giving question to the team 5 teachers. The first person was Mr wiseman, then it was mrs peato, Then miss moala and then the last one was miss clarke.

My favourite team was team 5, and team 4, because i like team 5 is that they funny, and because i like team 4 is that they were pretending to superhero.
