What an exciting night!!!

The Riwaka Extravaganza was such an amazing night! First, the kapa haka group welcomed the audience and that included me.  I thought that was a great start for the show.  We did a song called Rock'n Robin that we have been preparing for weeks.   Some people were playing the piano, some people were playing the ukulele and some people were playing the xylophones and we were all singing.  Our next performance was the "When I Grow Up" song.  It was a humorous sight.   Then the year six girls and Charlie (a year five) did a gymnastics dance.  It was awesome and radical!  The gym dance was performed by Charlie, Lucy, Jenna, Imogen, Cheyenne and Leea (which is me).  When I did the show I felt very nervous and excited at the same time but after the show I felt relieved because it was over!    

The Mouse and the Crocodile 

There was a mouse that lived in the jungle.  The mouse was squeaky and had a long tail.  

One day the mouse was walking beside the lake when suddenly he saw a big crocodile.

“AHHH”, the mouse squeaked. “Please don’t eat me, please don’t eat me.”

“Don’t worry little mouse, I won’t hurt you,” snapped the crocodile.  “I may look big and scary, but it doesn’t mean, I’m big and scary.”

“Oh, sorry,” the little mouse said.

They both discovered not to judge a book by its cover.  They became friends for a long time and they never forgot that message

Moral: Don’t judge a book by its cover.
