The choir festival

Some people in our class are in choir and we got to sing at the Kaipoi choir festival with other schools including Belfast, Kaipoi North, Kaiapoi South and of course Woodend school. It was so much fun. My favourite song was Chatanooga choochoo and Proud Mary. Me and Carlee did a dance for Taku Papiwira. It's a skate song. We had so much fun wearing the skate clothes.

Kaiapoi Music Festival (Choir)

On Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd of June was the Kaiapoi Music Festival at Kaiapoi Bourough school. It was AWESOME! The Woodend instrumental group came to play some music as well. After the concert we got chocolate fish & lollies. On Monday Mr Barber (principal of Woodend School) came to do some speaking and on Tuesday the principal of Kaiapoi North School came to do some speaking too. We sang: Proud Mary, Taku Papawira, Six Months in a Leaky Boat, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Daisy Bell, This Train, Chatanooga Choo Choo, Row Row Row Your Boat, Yellow Submarine, Up Up and Away, Sailing, Little Deuce Coupe and the National Anthem.The other schools got to sing at least two songs of their own. Also the Kaiapoi North School instrumental group got to perform as well. It was a lot of memorizing, but it was the most funnest thing I've ever experienced in my life!!!!
