Recount – Immersion Assembly T2

It is now Term 2 which means we have a new and fresh theme for the term.

The theme is called Transformers, Which is all about the elements of drama.

This morning at 8:50, me and Team 5 went to the hall to watch all the other Teams performance or watch the movie they had made. Team one did a movie about emotions, Team two did an act about how kiwi saved the forest, Team three did a musical play, Team four did a fun charades play and my Team did the most WEIRDEST Cinderella act.

My favourite highlight was when Cinderella got her dress ripped off by the prince.
