Kea Patrol

Kea Patrol
I think that kea patrol should NOT be in the morning because the kea patrol people could be late and people cross the road at different times. Kea patrol in the afternoon is very busy. The signs aren’t used in very windy and rainy conditions.
Firstly, Kea patrol should not be in the morning because the kea patrol people might forget to do it or they might be late. The little kids should have kea patrol but the big kids who are year 7 to year 8 should not need kea patrol because the year 7 and 8 students should know how to cross the road.

Secondly, Kea patrol is in the afternoon which is good because lots of people will be going home or going places or going to trainings so after school will be busy. The speed signs show you that you have to slow down to 40 which helps the kea patrol people get people across the road easier.

Thirdly, I think it’s good they don’t use the signs when it’s really rainy and when it's really windy. Then the teachers pretend to be the signs and help us cross the road and let us go home. The signs are also a decent size for what the school needs and they are a bright colour.

In conclusion I believe kea patrol is good overall. I use it everyday after school. It helps me cross the most deadly road in the country safely.

Review on the Mana The Spirit of Polynesia

Review on Mana The Spirit of Polynesia Show
On Friday the 9th of May In Room 8 at Karoro School we saw a performance called Mana - The Spirit of Polynesia. It was a good show I enjoyed it. Bernard Mangakahia was talented and nice. The things that he did was Poi, a Hoop Dance, Haka, Hawaiian lava lava, Hip Hop, a moko (Māori patterns on face), Sign Language. He also asked for volunteers and I was one of them and a lot of people volunteered and that was good because you could see how much people want to help.

Bernard Mangakahia told us how Native American Indians used  30 to 40 hoops for the hoop dance. It took Bernard 10 years to learn how to dance with 7 hoops for the hoop dance. Some of the parts of the performance were funny and some of the parts weren’t funny. 

Bernard was born in Malaysia and his mum was born in East Africa. He did the performance because he was telling us about all the different cultures and dances from different places. The culture that I was most interested in was the Native American Indians. This show was pretty good I enjoyed it.
