Save a needing family!

Hello, whoever is reading this post. I hope you have had a good day. Because I certainly have! Lately, I have been working on a passion project, which I have explained in a past post, with Gabrielle. We decided to sell speculaas biscuits (dutch biscuits) to the whole school to fundraise for an African family in need. We managed to raise $61.00 YAY!!! Thank you to the people that bought a cookie. We have decided to donate that money to world vision which will use the money to get water for a person or more in Africa. Thank you for reading this post, please comment if you are going to do something to help someone poor or if you have.

If You Can Dream It You Can Do It (And we certainly did)

Throughout last term, I participated in a tech challenge. I teamed up with Alison , Kalissa , and Gabrielle (Her blog is private) to create and code an app that solves a problem in our community.  That was when we created our app, an app to help stress problems. It is focused around 7-12-year-olds. It features four buttons Yoga, Exercise, Record, and Quotes.  We have exciting news. We made the New Zealand finalists, 4 app's in each category. North Island primary, North Island Secondary, South Island Primary and South Island Secondary.  But we recently found out we didn't get in the world finals. Oh well, we are very proud of what we achieved. 

Passion Project

This term, Kahikatea is doing passion projects. My passion project is....... I am going to research up on different countries traditional foods and create a menu of our chosen foods, I will organise a day for a shared lunch and cook/bake what I have chosen to fundraise for a small village in Africa.  If it all goes well we should have enough money for them to buy their food or enough money to buy food and needed supplies and ship or fly to Africa. Please comment any suggestions and any queries you have about my passion project.

Dance

Intro When you dance you move, you have fun. Did you know you can tell stories by dancing? There are different styles of dancing and this is all about them. Ballet Ballet is a style of dance that is slow. The music is slow and your movement is slow. You have to work hard, stretch your feet, have good posture. Ballet was originated in russia and france   In Ballet the moves are in french like a plie (which means a bend of the legs) and Arabesque, Ballet stories Using costumes, settings on stage and movement you can tell a story. You don’t have to tell a story by talking you can show the story by dancing. The popular ballet stories are, swan lake, the nutcracker, romeo and juliet and sleeping beauty, these are just a few. Pointe Pointe is when you go high up on your toes completely. You wear special shoes that have a flat end at the toes to help you go up on pointe. The age you can go on pointe is over 12 so keep working hard! Jazz Jazz i
