Jess (The Hip Hop Coach)

On Friday, it was the final day for Jess to teach us Hip-Hop. We went inside and went straight into our final dance. She told us to make our moves sharp and hard. It was hard to move while everyone were in the same spot and it was hard for me to concentrate with all the hands and feet going wild in the air.

After that, we did a game called "Musical Statues" and for me was like trying to relax from all that concentration. The point of the game was whenever Jess told us a dance move, we all had to make that same dance move while the music stopped. If we move or get the dance move wrong then we were out. I came 5th.

After that, we did a couple of pictures with Jess and after that, I stood up to say a thank you speech to Jess for what she has taught us.

Thank you Jess!!

Dance Off!!

Today we had hip hop with a professional dancer, Jess. This week we had to get into a 3 to 4 group and start learning a dance routine that is in beat with a rhythm that Jess had prepared for us.

I was with Solomone, Joanlisi, Jessica, Tristan and Riiana. We were competing with three other groups. It was hard to think of a dance that would keep in beat with the rhythm but we had a lot of ideas from Jess. All we had to concentrate on keep in time with the beat and remember that actions.

We all danced at the end and clapped at the same time. It was fun.

Ruapotaka's Manaiakalani Ambassador!!

On Wednesday the 30th of May 2018, Mrs Golder and I went to Somerville School that use to be Tamaki Intermediate for my presentation about Road Safety. The reason why was because I was the Manaiakalani Ambassador for my school, Ruapotaka.

My teacher and I typed a speech on how I made my slideshow and how my learning journey began. I practised first in front of my teacher and a couple of teachers who hosted the programme. I read from another chromebook that they gave to me. 

Finally it was my turn. I was about to shake when I told myself to get on with it and you will feel better when you are finished. At the end of my speech they all clapped as I said Faafetai Lava which means Thank You in Samoan. In the car, Mrs Golder said I am proud of you, you did good.
