ROCK-FEST

Kotuku class has been practicing for just over two weeks perfecting our music and performance. We practiced three awesome songs, New Divide, Rolling in the Deep and Bang Bang Bang. With the last song Bang Bang Bang, we only had about three days to learn it and get it right!

On Tuesday, the first of November, we had the chance to show off our talents to twelve other Schools around the Nelson area. Three was some amazing performances including 'The Peasants' from Garin College who are the best secondary school in New Zealand! We played second to last in the day, so we were able to see all the other Bands rock out! When it came to our turn to play on stage we were all nerves. We set up quickly and were ready to perform in no time, and we did sooooo well, it all went smoothly and the crowd cheered us on. It was an exciting experience and I'm sure everyone thought the same too. Each School got given a fifty dollar voucher to Music Planet in Richmond, which was a bonus to all the schools.

At the end of the day they did a draw for an electric guitar worth two hundred and sixty dollars! So everyone was quiet as he shuffled the numbers around the hat, but as he did that one number fell out so they just used that one instead, it was the number twelve. Mahana's number.
So now we have a fifty dollar voucher and an electric guitar. I would like to keep going with the band, ( and why not? ) So to cut it short, I had an exceptional day!

U.F.O

Today for maths we had to create a subculture with marshmallows and tooth picks. We had to find out what fractions of a colour marshmallow we had. Taylor and I had 3/7 of pink and we had 35 all together.
This is ours.

The Crocodile nest

This is a exciting adventurous book about a 13 year old boy called Luke who finds out he has a father, and goes looking for him but on the way there are lots of surprises that makes him have second thoughts.

I would rate this book: 4/5

I think that this book would be for about 10 year olds and up
