A Blast from the Past - Junior School Production

 This term the whole junior school have been very busy preparing a school production called 'A Blast from the Past.' The play takes a comical look at the changes in education over the past 150 years and looks at things such as uniform, photo day, punishment, drinking milk and reading books.

 Room 4 were repsonsible for the 'photographer scene'. We auditioned for roles and then set about learning our lines. Rubie was the photographer and Kate was the classroom teacher. Blake, Venessa, Josie, Lucie, Alesana, Jenaya, Toby and Abby were pupils in the class who all had speaking parts.

 Not only did the students have lines to learn, but they also had to learn three songs. The whole school sang the opening and closing songs, and Room 4 had a song of our own to go with our scene.

 It was so much fun out the back getting ready. People were getting make-up on and people were getting their hair done. It was VERY busy, there were kids and adults everywhere, but everyone knew exactly what they were doing, and what had to be done.

 It was heaps of fun to have characters and to wear costumes, although most of us were in our school uniform.

 While we waited out the back it was important to stay quiet so we were allowed to bring iPods and books and games to keep us busy.

 Finally - it was 'SHOW TIME!'

We got to head out onto stage and put all of our hard work on display.

It was so much fun!! We all did our very best. Our lines were all perfect, our voices were the loudest they had been, the audience laughed when our lines were funny, and we sang our song beautifully. Mrs May and Mrs O were super proud, and they thought we definitely gave our best performance ever! Well done Room 4 - you are an awesome bunch!!!!
