Ships ahoy

We liked our bridge because it was strong it was well connected and unique in its own way because it had different features then other bridges.

The things that were a disadvantage is that we didn't get time to make the bridge itself and it wasn't what we wanted our design to look like.

The changes we would have changed is that it would work and it would have been taller and looked more attractive like the design.

Winter

Shivering,shaking.
A white sheet icy and cold.
Snowflakes all around.

Our bridge

This is our groups bridge we had to use it out of tape and newspaper we only had 25 minutes to complete it, at first it was easy but when we had only 5 minutes left we were all worrying we realised we had done it wrong then when I was about to take the pitcher it broke, all the legs snapped off just when we were about to test it we were all disappointed.

Cultural Festival 2012

Yesterday afternoon Burnham school got to go to the CBS Arena to preform Kapa Haka so we could represent our school in front of 2000 people plus other school.

We started at school where we had to get changed,the girls had to get their hair done and their dresses on,the boys had to get their black shorts on a swell.It was hard for the girls because when we eventually got on the bus some of us including me had our pins came out of our dresses that's when I was getting stressed.

The nerves were coming to us, when we were backstage we had to make our way up the stairs to the stage.It was nervraking when they called our name, by the time I knew it Burnham school was up on stage as fast as a cheetah. It was scary you couldn't tell if the audience was there or not, it was pitch black with the lights on us the Audience was blown away with the boys haka, it was as loud as a boat horn. The audience even clapped to the beat of reach a-swell.

Overall I think that going to the cultrual festival was amazing, preforming up there was great. The scary thing was you weren't sure if the big screen behind you was zooming in on your face.
