Pay Attention - Prefects Korero

The following movie was created by our prefects for their korero of the week - Pay Attention. It's all about the importance of paying attention. If you pay attention then you will be able to follow the correct instructions that you have been given. So listen to your teachers, coaches and to your peers. We hope that you pay attention in class, on the sports field and at home.

Whodunnit?

Have you ever watched a movie about a murder mystery? Sometimes the person who commits a crime is the person who you'd least expect.

The Year 7&8 Extension group were keen to write the script and create their characters for our movie. We used sound effects and music to create suspense and build up a sense of drama. A couple of our characters used different accents (voices) as well. We tried to build a story that would keep our viewers watching. If you enjoyed watching our movie, please leave some feedback and/or positive comments.

Superheroes!

This movie was created by the Year 5&6 Extension group. Everyone wanted to play a part in the movie, so we decided to split the movie up into different sections or different worlds. The students wrote the script and picked their characters.

The theme was inspired by some of the most popular block buster movies. We used quite a few green screen effects for our backgrounds. The underwater scene was quite difficult to shoot, but the footage was amazing!

We hope that you enjoy watching our movie. Please leave some positive comments on our blog.

Niue Language Week

Fakaalofa lahi atu! Niue is affectionately known as the 'Rock' of Polynesia. This year we had a large group of students perform at assembly to celebrate the end of Niue Language Week. Many of our students are non-Niuean, so it was amazing to watch them learn a new dance and perform an item in front of the school. Monuina e faahi tapu vagahau Niue! Choo hoo!

Maori Language Week

Te Wiki o te reo Māori is becoming a major fixture on the national calendar providing an opportunity for concentrated promotion, raising awareness and giving an opportunity for expert and advanced speakers to encourage others on their te reo Māori journey. link

Tongan Language Week

To celebrate the end of Tongan Language week a large group of students performed at assembly. Amelia in Year 8 choreographed the girls dance which was then taught by Tia, Shania and Ms Tuia. The boys item was choreographed by Viliami in Year 8 with some help from Ms King and Mrs Ilaoa. The students were amazing and the costumes beautiful!
