Grandparents Day 2018

Last Friday we had our Grandparents afternoon and this is the one photo we took of our Jump Jam group that performed for our Grandparents.
They did an outstanding job.
Grandparents Afternoon is a day where all the students invite their grandparents to watch children perform, and enjoy their selves, the performances included Pasifika ( Pasifika is a group that performs Pasific dances while representing their culture., Jump Jam- the picture above ( is a fun groovy dance group that performs fun dances to entertain us, Music Group ( A group that performs songs very well, using Ukuleles, tambourines, drums, and their singing voices. And our Kapa Haka Group( performing Maori dances and haka's)
 There was also afternoon tea for our grandparents to enjoy with homemade food from our students and families ( they were delicious) I'm sure the Grandparents loved them

We all enjoyed having our Grandparents visit our School,

Conductive materials are materials that will produce electricity, we also use a website called Scratch.
Some of the things we have made have been Instruments, Controllers and an alarm system.

The Variety Show was very fun for all the students, we got lots of positive feedback. Adults enjoyed the show as well as children. We raises a lot of money to pay for EOTC.
Our Variety Concert was a success and most of the parents and families enjoyed seeing their students on stage performing a show they had put together. We raised around $6,000 and that was enough to pay off our bus ride for our end of the year.
