Kids for Kids Concert
We
practiced our songs for the kids 4 kids. Everytime when it’s nearly
home time Miss G would turn on the kids 4 kids music and she would help
us.
We would practice everyday, it was fun. We had to practice everyday until it was the day. We had to sing some new songs and Miss G helped us to get the new song right. If we got the tone wrong we would do it again until we got it right. Some of the the tunes were hard to sing. When we practiced we have to close our books and know it off by heart and that was hard for some people but for me it was easy. It was awesome to sing, I sang everyday.
I love to sing, everywhere I go I always sing. Some of the songs were easy to remember but some of the songs were hard, but still fun. It is easy to sing, all you do is just make sure your voice is tuned and it is right for the music.
We usually sang on the mat after eating our fruits. Miss G played the songs on her laptop, there was backing music (that for us to use when we didn’t need the person singing.) and there was the normal music (a person singing our part).
We had to know all the songs off by heart before the day we performed. If we didn’t know the songs off by heart the kids in kids 4 kids would think we hadn’t learnt it.
By the time it was the day we took the books back and went but I wasn’t there when it was the night because I was just too busy and tired.

Musical Evening
On a exciting day St Pius X school had a special evening, it was the musical evening. It is when we all come together and stand up and sing or dance.
Before I could go inside the hall I was playing at the playground. Then ring....ring....ring.....ring! the bell went. We lined up like in the morning and the teachers were talking about the musical evening. We went inside the hall, first went room 6 then room 4, room 5 then room 7 and room 3. I was so excited I just wanted to blow up into pieces.
I was thinking the back wall was cool because it had a disk musical sign and the colours were nice. Lavinea started to talk and introduce room 2, they did a song, it was beautiful. Room 1 and 2 then danced. It was room 7 girl that did a maori dance, followed by the room 7 boys also a band called noisy boys, they had different kinds of drums.
They were awesome, when they were finish it was all the room 7 boys that did a fijian dance called the Makoe. When the room 7 boys were finished it was room 6, they did a music mix it was amazing.
Room 5 did 2 musical items on marimba’s and recorders. When room 5 was finish it went to room 4, they did a boogie song, it was awesome. When room 4 was finished it was room three and we did ‘Puppet on a string’ and ‘Somewhere out there’. I had butterflies in my tummy.
When we were finished we went and sat down then it was the finishing act ‘Sister Act’ all together. When we were finished our parents had to get us and go home.

Granny Smith
The fruit of the day was Granny Smith apples.
It looks like a ball all round. It sounds crunchy like a crunchy bar when you bite it and smells fresh, yum and nice.
The apple feels as soft as baby's skin and as hard as a tennis ball but is smooth. It tastes sweet, sour, yum, juicy and awesome. It is seen in the shops, apple trees and supermarkets.
It is used to help you be healthy and to be eaten. It is special because it is healthy.
The Granny Smith apple is my favourite fruit in the whole wide world to me and I eat it everyday.
