Film Festival 2014

Film Festival
On Wednesday the 12th our whole school went to Sylvia Park to watch the film festival. What is a film festival? a film festival is when all of the Manaiakalani schools come to Sylvia Park to the Hoyts cinemas.


What do we do at FIlm Festival?. When we enter the movies we have to wait till everyone comes in and is settled in. Before all of the movies started we had to wait and be quite so everyone can come in.


Who are the Manaiakalani schools? These are the Manaiakalani Schools: Glen Brae, Glen Innes school, Panmure Bridge School, Pt England School, Saint Patricks Panmure, St Pius x Catholic school glen Innes, Sommerville Special school, Stonefields school, Tamaki College, Tamaki COllege and Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o puau te Moananui-a-kiwa. All of these Manaiakalani schools had to make a movie with all of the class.


When we were at the Movies watching our movie called the
“ METV”. It was really embarrassing and really cool seeing myself on the big screen.

Term 4 Immersion Assembly

Immersion Assembly

On Monday 13th of October, Pt England had an Immersion assembly. Whenever we go back to school we always go to Immersion assembly in the hall at the start of the term. We learn about what were going to be focused on the whole term.

Team 1 did an item when they were playing on the beach and they were surfing and playing surfing music, then they were playing on the sand with shovels and buckets. When they were finished then Mrs George said “we are going down to the river and looking at the environment”.

Team 2 teachers showed us a movie about primary colours. The primary colours are red, blue and yellow. They taught us about what colour makes another colour.

Next Mrs Barks from Team 3 was introducing the other teachers like they were other famous artist on the world. One of the first teachers were pretending to be Leonardo Da Vinci and showing everyone what their most famous portrait ever. Leonardo’s Painting was the famous Mona Lisa. Another famous artist was another teacher pretending to be Andy Warhol. Andy Warhol was famous of making his own portrait of a Tomato Soup. The other teacher was pretending to be another artist his special talent was when he falls asleep and he gets his ideas from his dreams. When he wakes up he gets a piece of canvas and a paint brush and paints what was in his dream.

Team 4 did an item when they did a competition of who is the best artist. The teachers pretended to be famous artists in the world. Mrs Lavakula pretended to be Fatu Feu’u and having the most famous Polynesian art. Mr Goodwin (Claude Monet) was famous for his pointillism art. He would just get his finger and paint what ever he sees. Mrs Jacobsen was pretending to be Vincent Van Gogh. Vincent Van Gogh painted his famous art called the Starry Night.
Starry Night was painted in 1889. Mr Somerville pretended to be a French artist and trying to have a French accent but actually had a Russian accent.
Finally Team 5 did a really awesome item. They had a piece of paper and it was hanging from the board and they had to paint important people at Pt England school. When they were painting the portraits there was a video playing. When they were finished they turned it around it appeared to be Mr Jacobsen, Mrs Jarman and Mr Burt. Then everyone was gasping and clapping.
Coming back to school was amazing for me because I get to focus on what I enjoy to do. Team 4 is gonna be really exciting because its a new term and were focusing on Art Attack.
