Pasifika Study Performance ☺☺

Today at assembly each class had to perform a item based to Samoa & Tonga. First Room 1 performed a traditional Samoan dance called the Sāsā, followed on by 5,6,7,9,10,12 the one that interested me the most was Room 6 there performance was good and their Tongan & Samoan outfits. Then at last it was room 12's turn to perform we sang a song called 'How Far I'll' go from the Moana movie. At first I was nervous but then later I be came confident. I really enjoyed the performances from the other classes today.

Some people received books at assembly and we finished the day of with blogging.
