The wonderful thing about this performance was that it incorporated all four disciplines within the Arts - Dance, Drama, Visual Art, and Music.
It's not an easy task to keep over 400 students engaged and focused for 40mins but Kim, Albany and Jane did it beautifully, and we loved it!

Here's what some of the Harakeke Ukulele Club members thought about the show...
Molly liked the beautiful three part singing.
Cael liked the way the Pouakai spread his wings once he learned how to fly off Maunga Aoraki.
Reece loved the props and how they were made.
Holly liked the detailed costumes.
Oliver liked the Pouakai's funny actions.
Liam liked the Titiri when it was flying in the air saying funny things.
Evie thought the performance was very funny.
Stephanie thought it was clever how they could perform lots of characters with only 3 actors. Calaiss loved how they told the story.
Abbey loved joining in singing the song at the end .
Brianna loved how the eel moved.
Zoe liked how the bird started flying when it was at the top of the mountain.
This performance was based on a lot of different stories from people in our local area who have been brave and who have a story to tell.
When did you last feel brave? Who helped you to feel brave?
