Term 4 Immersion Assembly

Term 4 Immersion Assembly

On the first day of term 4 Pt England School had an immersion assembly so we know what we are learning about and our main focus for this term is survivor, outwit, outsmart and outlast.


As we sat down everyone was so bored because all we did was sit and listen to the song that was playing. Then everyone got so excited because the immersion assembly was about to start, Mr Burt came walking in wearing  funky clothes and a parrot on his head.  Mr Burt played a video that he made himself. It was about a fiapoko parrot that lived in Pt Dingaling, one day the parrot came to a house  he was so annoying and so loud he said i’m the fiapoko parrot.


As team one had their turn Mrs George explained to everyone that they are going to the zoo to learn about the animals and how they adapt. When she finished talking Miss King shouted very loud “Is that all Miss George we want more” Miss George picked some students to have a karaoke competition and whoever wins gets to go with team 1 to the zoo. Everyone got more excited because Mr Burt introduced team 2 and team 3, team 2 and team 3 are actually learning about dinosaurs and how they adapt.


Now team 4 was up their short movie was a funny video because they had to guess what was behind them but they did not know what was really behind them, my favourite one was one student thought that she at candy land but she was really inthe sea with sharks.
It really really exciting for me because it was team 5 up and all the teachers represented different part of the country it was very expiring because they were talking about how to adapt in the living world and that is our main focus for this term.


Then we got to the ending of our assembly everyone was very expiring of what all the teachers were making us understand and it was so amazing.
