J-Rock Performance

On Tuesday 16th of June Ngatea Primary School participated in J-Rock at Claudelands Arena. I was one out of fifty four children that did it I was one of Julie's friends.I chose to do J-Rock because I thought I would try something new and see how it would go. Well I guess I chose right because I have enjoyed the whole thing so much and really just the whole experience of it was amazing. Just before we went on stage we had to let all of the nervousness go and  just enjoy the moment and try your best. We got awarded four awards I'm not sure what they were but it doesn't really matter because we all enjoyed it. J-Rock is a on stage dance performance that tells you a story without talking. Our performance was about the gaming world. The main character is Julie (the one wearing the red dress) For her bithday she gets a console for her birthday, although she has to make a choice between her friends or the console. But she starts getting confused of what is real and what is not.

Here is a link so you can see our rehearsal that we did for the school and parents. Hope you enjoy this exciting performance. Also check out our prep video and the real one underneath!

What I Would Do With One Million Dollars

This week I am doing my blog post about what I would do with one million dollars. There is a list of what I would buy down the right side of the page. If I was able to buy all of this I think that I would be living a dream probably living a life of a millionaire. There are a few pictures one of my house, the cutest puppy ever and my customised converse. When I was doing this post I had to think quite a bit about what I would do with the leftover money I was thinking and I finally decided that I would give it to a charity I searched up some charities and I found the Cancer Foundation I'm not sure how much money I would have left because it was too hard to take that much away from on million but it is more than 50,00 dollars.

Queen's Birthday Weekend, Is her birthday really in June?

The Queen's real birthday is actually April 21, 1926 so her age is 89. The Queen’s Birthday is celebrated in New Zealand on the first Monday of June each year. In other parts of the world, however, it’s celebrated at different times. In the UK, for instance it can fall variously on the first, second or third Saturday of June and it’s not even a public holiday. In Canada it’s rolled in with Victoria Day and is celebrated on Queen Victoria’s birth date of 24th May. And the Aussies take their Queen’s Birthday day off on the second Monday in June. How can one woman have so many different birthdays? Well, the holidays celebrated in Commonwealth countries to mark the Sovereign’s birthday mark the Queen’s official birthday, not her real one of 21st April 1926.The fact that holidays for the Queen’s official birthday fall on different dates in different countries is a result of historical tradition.
