Morning blog post
In the holidays, I did not do that much, all I did was dance practice for this Saturday, as I have my dance school production at Baycourt. On the first week my parents went down to my cousins bush house, and the kids didn't go so I had my nana come down and look after us for the weekend. On the second week we had heaps of visits from family and friends. There was a big surprise as my baby cousins Charlie-rae and James came down to see us, as I haven't seen them because they live far away from tauranga. Later on in the week I went to the movies to go see Despicable me in 2D with my little brother Liam, my brother Hamish, my older sister Chanel and her boyfriend Brandon, it was really funny, but on the way home my little brothers were repeating all the voices they made.

Term2 Overview
This term would probably be my favourite term so far as we had camp, cross country, production, technology and science fair. For camp we stayed at Ngamuwahine for a week. We did a lot of fun activities like paintball, rafting, kayaking, made dampers, absailing, rock climbing, high ropes, flying fox, cooking night, sleep in the bush and much more. This term we also had cross country. We ran three kilometeres around the school. The year 7 girls went first then year 7 boys then year 8 girls then year 8 boys. My placing was 125 out of 260 girls in the year 8 girls. Later on in the term production was flying by, we had heaps and heaps of practices during school, out of school and at Bay court. Production would of been my favourite thing this term, as I was a dancer for the swan lake scene and the final countdown scene. We spent a week down at Bay court practicing all day and had our real performance at night. On the same week as production we had science fair coming up, I was very stressed as I was at production performances and practices, so i did not do that much science fair, so I had to stay up late at night to work on it. My science fair idea was Dance shoes or bare feet, I chose this topic because my favourite

Homework
Excellence in the arts- E6- Join the production.
In week 9 I was involved in the school production called Most Triumphant Tale. I was a dancer, I danced in Swan lake and Final countdown and was also in the finale. We practiced a lot during school and after school and even in the weekends. In the week of production, on that monday we had to meet all in the hall at 9.00 to go on the buses down to Bay court, we had to go down to Bay court to practice all day, for 3 hours they spent doing the lighting and touches up, it was so boring. On Tuesday we had to do the same thing but go there to practice again, then that night it was the real night. On the real night, it was really fun. The dancers had to turn up at 5.30 pm at night, we had to be there that early just to get ready and put make up on. Our show started at 7.00 and finished at 9.00 pm. On the Wednesday I woke up sick so I didn't get to do the matinee and do the night show. On the Thursday was the last day of production, we had to go on buses down to Bay court as we had another matinee, we were preforming infront of Tauranga Intermediate, it was very frightening but also fun, that night was our last one, there were a lot of people, at the end Miss Coville did a speech and us kids gave flowers and chocolate to the cast and of course Miss Story and Jess. I had a lot of fun and hope to have that experience some time again.
