Quick Write: Immersion Assembly

It’s back to school whanau! You know what that means…..Immersion Assembly! Immersion Assembly is a time where all the students of Point England meet in the school hall, where all the teachers and staff prepare an item or mtv to present our school topic! I walked into the hall, eager to see what was instore for us. I see the huge screen with the words Life’s a Stage! While we were getting ready to be seated, I could hear the music playing in the background. Various songs played which were remixed by Mr Jacobsen were smoothly blasting across the hall. Once we were all settled, we let the show begin!

Mr Burt was at the front doing his normal greeting. Since it’s Niuean Language Weeking Mr Burt yelled out loud FAKALOFA LAHI ATU PT ENGLAND! We all replied back, giggling at his amusing costume. It consisted of a messy wig coloured blue, red and white. Funky! He wore a skirt that I found pretty weird, and a bright t-shirt to top it off. He went on to explain how many cultural dances can explain different stories. Mr Burt was blurbing out words of excitement when Mr Jacobsen cut him off. “Mr Burt! Can I tell my story?!”, he said with eagerness. Mr Burt replied with a yes and the first item was underway!

Mr Jacobsen held the mic up and spoke with enthusiasm. “Well you guys know this story...🎶There once was a little boy, who lived in Eketahuna.🎶 Mr Burt was acting out all the words of the classic, original Pt England song - Is it Kind. Mr Jacobsen and Mr Burt both entertained us with that one verse. We chuckled at the site of the two crazy men. Mr Jacobsen proceeded to sing the second verse. 🎶Delilah was a little girl, she lived in Eketahuna. She likes to ride her motorbike- 🎶 VRROOM! A sudden noise of an engine cranking scattered across the hall. We all draw our attention to the back where the noise came from. HAHAHAHAHAH! The whole school bursts out in laughter at the site of Mr Sommerville. VRROOM! VRROOM! He was wearing a fuzzy blond wig which just made us all lose it.

Mrs Tele’a also made some short appearances when it came to the line. 🎶 Taught to them by their moooootttthhheeerrrr. 🎶 Once it came to the chorus the whole school sang the song. This was my favourite item because I found it amusing and hilarious. What a great item!

What am I? I started off as a lonely seed, over time my lonely seed develops and grows into a beautiful green stem. To grow I need a lot of rain as it gives me the strength to increase. As this stem slowly grows I flourish as well! While I flourish I start of very ripe green colour as If I am not cooked well or still need time. At this time I am feeling hard and I look very small. Many time goes past, I have finally developed! I now look bright red with a green stem showing my connection to my seed.

TASK DESCRIPTION: As a warm up task for our writing, Miss Tapuke decided to hold a short Quick Write comp! A Quick Write comp is where Miss Tapuke gives us a topic and a time limit to write about that specific topic. In this case, we had five minutes to write and our topic was to describe a vegetable or fruit without naming it. After our comp we shared our writing with each other and try to guess what vegetable or fruit we are describing.
