film festival

So next week Wednesday the whole school is getting on a bus to go to silver park to watch our films that we have created on the big screen at the theater.  This is what we do every year because we are a manaiakalani school. We're not only going to watch our films but other manaiakalani schools. Then once we have finished watching the films we will be on our way back to school.

Tennis with Pete

Today was our first day of practice for tennis, so we went down to the courts to have practice with coach Pete. He teaches us how to play tennis, his first instruction was to practice some drills. Then we had to stand near a racket and practice hitting the ball towards our  opponent, then when he says switch! we change to give the other person turn. After all that practice we start playing a game of tennis. It was coming towards the end of our session so once we finished we said good bye to coach Pet, and looking forward to seeing him next Tuesday.

Duffy Awards

On Monday we had two special Duffy role models. They came to talk to us about reading books. Once they introduced themselves they started talking about how they were interested in reading. One of the role models said his teacher told him that he should read books about sports because he loved playing it.   That's how he got involved in big events. Then at the end specific people were called up to receive their Duffy books from the two Duffy role models. After that we sang the Duffy song.
