Aoetea Centre

On Monday two classes from Glenbrae were on there way to Auckland Live. When we got there our ushers took in to a great big hall and that's where we had our first session. Our first session was very exciting and kinda new for me because it was about dancing and a lot of fresh skills to learn and because I was not into dancing.

Later on after that session finished we went and had breakfast out in the middle of aotea square. After our break we went to our next session and it was about two animals that were traveling from New Zealand to Alaska on there way they stop at Australia and met a jumpless kangaroo which was also Maori so they told the kangaroo if you have seen their friend the taniwha but he said first i've lost my talent of jumping and could you help me get it back. So they helped him two of them shouted out E Peke(Means Jump) then he tried out it couldn't work so they got us to stand up and then we all said it in a loud voice then the Kangaroo started jumping very high so he pointed the way to china but we finished there because they were still making the end up.

Later on it was lunch time so we went and got our lunches and sat down where we were and ate.

While we were eating we played bull rush and it was cool and fun because we played with another school, it was very packed as we were playing so we played another game called cats and rats but we couldn't play because there wasn't that much time left and we had to take our bags so we took them and then lined up outside.

After Lunch it was our last session and it was called Matamata 2.0 it was also about Interactive Art and Dance first we were showin a screen that had an Xbox connect in front so we got split into two groups and one went with the dance person. Then the rest went with the person that was running Matamata 2.0 the thing that we were  meant to do was look at the screen and copy the person that was dancing. After 20 minutes we swapped over and for the next group we had to come up with something about a sport that  you liked then after we all perform it we played a game to wait for the other group.

I felt very happy because I learnt lots of new things and I hope that we will go back there some day.
