Polyfest Learning Story.
On the  10th of August at Hosanna Church, Corinna School participated in an event known as Polyfest. Polyfest is an NZ wide event that many schools, groups (etc) are involved in. It’s a way for children and adults to communicate a story about their culture through song and dance.
There were about 5 groups that performed at Polyfest. It consisted of Samoa, Tuvalu/Tokelau, Cook Island, Maori and Kapa Haka. On that day I contributed in the Senior Samoan group.
I chose to perform for that group even though the teachers gave us a choice. My culture is Samoan and I’m proud to represent my culture.
My polyfest performance was stressful but fun. I am very proud of myself because my goals for polyfest were to smile, have fun, enjoy and to get the actions perfect and superb.
Performing in the senior Samoan group that I participated in the k.c skills I used were relating to others, managing self and participating and contributing...

  • I followed and paid attention to instructions that were given by the teachers,
  • I showed positive attitude towards my performance and rehearsals,
  • I memorized the actions off by heart.

Encouraging was something I did all day. I was a brilliant cheerleader. I enjoyed encouraging my peers so that it would motivate them to achieve their personal best. In a way it made me feel as though I was responsible for a little bit of my peers accomplishments and happiness. Only a little bit. Then we moved on to discus. I think I tried my best to get silver even though my goal was to get gold but at least I tried. I had to learn how to hold a discus before I threw it and to throw it in the right direction. I think I improved on my real throw because I took the teacher’s advice. The teacher's advice was to

Art Learning Story.

What is surrealism art? Surrealism began as a philosophical movement that said the way to find truth in the world through the subconscious mind and dreams. Surrealist works often show familiar things in unexpected or impossible ways. Art is not my thing. But I stepped out of my comfort zone and had a try. I was really good at relating to others because I asked for advice on what colors I could use. In my art, I combined a guitar and my face. It shows that music is my passion. My hair has patterns in it which show my culture which is Samoan. The K.C skills I used was self-managing. I focused and chose the right people and the right place to get my art done. I didn’t distract other people and I shared my ideas. I was struggling with the equipment because it was too thick like the pastel. So I knew that my next steps were to not draw small patterns or else it will be hard to color. My advice for those people who don’t like art is to not be shy and just draw. Don’t be
