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

Whangara trip

On the 11th of june 2018 we went to whangara to learn about the different grasses that they grow. Andrew and renee showed us how to do these cages and Andrew showed us how fast the wind is going and where the wind is heading. Andrew also showed us how much water the cattle drink and they drink 80 liters a day.

I was really fun learning all of what rennae does to the cages she keeps them in one spot for 2 weeks and then moves the cages to another spot. She also brings this grass momater to test the height of the grass grows.


Andrew also told us heaps of facts about the trees and about the red clover some were lucky and found a four leaf clover. There were 5 different types of grasses there was Ryegrass,Plantain,Red clover,croksfoot and lokus.

In the nursery there were two types of grass there was willows to stop the erosion happening by the river banks and the other grass was called popolas wich was to stop the erosion happening by the hills.

I had so much fun learning about the different grasses that Renee and Andrew showed us and I liked learning about all of the knowledge that they knew and that I know now.
