In our Stop Motion this girl named Ashley meet this guy called James she thought he was going to be a nice guy but later on James told Ashley that he was a bully at his old school and Ashley didn't want to be friends with James anymore and Ashley never talked to James again.

 Wednesday came and it was the day of the Marimba festival and I was so excited because I got to perform with 100 or more kids and I got to perform in front of a lot of parents witch was amazing. My favorite song was all of them they all related to tauranga and the ocean witch was pretty cool. There were schools from rotorua,welcome bay,saint mary's tauranga and a lot heap more, it was one of my favorite things I got to do with my class. Jeremy was the person who was helping us be amazing for the audience and I think he did a fabulous. Jeremy even made the teachers sing Trilo and I was amazed by Mr Hocquard because he looked like he didn't know that words but he did and he did a great job.

Dear Students of Central School..

 My name is Julia and I am writing this letter to you guys and girls because of your hard work and confidence of performing your production This is us - Anei Matou in front of 130 kids and other parents. Thank you for letting us come to the War Memorial Theatre and letting us see your production. For 430 kids you did so well!

 I really enjoyed watching your production and I especially like the costumes and prop ideas you guys came up with. The costumes were very pretty and the giant people Captain Cook and kiwa were REALLY cool .  My favorite part was everything some parts were funny and some parts shocked me. There were different lights that went with every act and it made that act even better. The timing was not to fast and It wasn’t to slow.. Something that I learned was that your guys school was built over 100 years ago in the 1800s WOW our school hasn’t even been that many years old.

 You had different scenes that related to your school and It helped me understand more about your school story. It was really cool how you had different Narrators say different parts in each story of the production. I also like how you guys showed how the Maori people came to New Zealand and that you weren’t shy of saying anything.  You had the sea the haka and the planets of space and it was astonishing the lights shocked me and it looked good. It was good how you guys sang most of the time and it made the play 100 times better. It also made the play 150 percent better when you guys knew what you were doing and that you knew the choreography to every dance.

 To finish of this letter to you students at Central School I would like to say thank you again for inviting us to come and watch your production and to know that we were the only school to watch your play it was an honor to come. And I hope next year the future for you guys is amazing.

 Thank you again
 Arohanui Julia
