Last week, on Friday, the year four to eight went on a bus to the panmure library. We went there to meet with Stig Wemyss who is a voice artist. He does the audio books for Andy Griffiths books. He also introduced something called borrow box, which is a app that allows digital book borrowing. He hooking the audience (Us) into his talk by using his humor and giving out prizes. He gave out prizes for things like being the person with the loudest and biggest burp. Here is a link to his site: www.stig.com.au.
The Panmure Library
Today room 7 went to the Panmure Library. We walked all the way there. When we got to the Library we had to go and sit on mat. Half the class sat on a white and black mat and the other half sat on a red and black mat. We were fairy tribes. Our teachers names were Pare, Juanita, Ole and Kare . The half of the class that sat on the black and red mat had a club (patu) and the other half that sat on the black and white mat had a stick (rakau). We enjoyed practicing with the weapons with our teachers. After that we made a matau out of clay. To make the matau we had to get a necklace and push it in the clay. When it was finally time to go back to school I was really sad we had really great time there. I hope we do it again some time.
