Tuesday 3/7/12

Today at the school there were more kids since yesterday everyone was out celebrating NAIDOC week.

The first bell goes off at 7:30am to tell everyone they should wake up and since it is such a small town everyone can hear it. The next bell goes 8:00 telling everyone to come to school then the 8:30 signals the start of school.

I had decided to take a class so I went into Mr. Peter's classroom. The maximum for the class is about 9 or 10 kids and there are about 30 kids in the school. The class was years 7-9 but the standard of the work is different so I got given a few sheets of what would be their year 9 average. It was a quiet classroom and everyone was very good at all their English especially since it is a second language to them.

After the class I headed over to the shed where all the music equipment was and we did another workshop but it was more about art than music but we still made up a few songs. After this we set up for the end of term concert with all the instruments. at 5:00pm the party started and we had Damien and Em play a few of their songs and then we all had some dinner which I had made 60 skewers for.

After dinner we had Ewan play about 4 of his songs then Damien, Em and Bryte played a couple of songs, then a few kids got up on stage and sang One Direction songs which was hilarious. After that Bryte got up on stage and performed 4 rap songs while the kids danced and did back flips to win prizes. After this we all packed up and headed home to get some sleep because we had to wake up early the next morning to leave for the next school.
