We learned about Margaret Mahy, a famous New Zealand author who wrote many wonderful children’s books and stories. She was born in Whakatāne and loved reading and writing from a young age. Margaret Mahy’s books are known for their imagination, magic, and fun characters that make reading exciting. Some of her most famous books include The Lion in the Meadow and The Great White Man-Eating Shark. We learned that she won many awards for her writing and that her stories are loved all around the world. Margaret Mahy showed us that creativity and imagination can inspire everyone to dream big.
Famous singers
Our class, Tūī 3, learned about the famous New Zealand band Six60. Six60 started in Dunedin when a group of friends began making music together at university. They became very popular for their mix of pop, rock, sounds. Some of their well known songs include rise, Special, and Don’t Forget Your Roots. Six60 has broken records by performing in huge stadiums and inspiring people all over Aotearoa. We learned that they are proud of their Kiwi identity and often celebrate Māori culture in their songs. Tūī 3 really enjoyed discovering more about this amazing New Zealand band.
We had to make a group of five people and create our own musical band. Each person had to play a real instrument, just like in an actual band. There had to be one drummer, one guitarist, one bass guitarist, and one pianist. I was in a group with Reyan, Ayan, Kavish, and Ayansh — that was my team. Together, we decided to name our band “The Chosen Onez.”
we came up with who will do what and Kavish made the guitar Ayansh made the base guitar Reyan made the drum Ayan made the microphone and I made the piano and 2 days later we invited diyon because se he didn’t have a group he made another drum with reyan
