Keep Your Eye on the Weirdos!!

Have you ever heard off the saying, “ Keep Your Eye on the Ball”? Well, that’s what we are learning about- the Rugby World Cup!! We found this out at our Immersion Assembly!

An Immersion Assembly is when mostly the WHOLE school gathers together to learn about a new topic for the beginning of a term or a new year. Most teachers dress up and make up an item or movie.

As I got closer and closer to the hall where we had our Immersion Assembly, I heard the chanting voice of an old man! Guess what, it was the small Mr Jacobson!! I slowly sat down and stared at the multi-coloured face that was owned by Mr J. “Ireland!”, Mr J kept on shouting!!! “ What’s wrong Finley”, I thought to myself but I knew it was Mr J! I heard the theme song for the RUGBY WORLD CUP! I started to sing along to it.


Suddenly, I saw Richie McCaw walk into the hall!!! Just kidding....... It was Mr Burt! He wore a big All Blacks rugby jersey. My favourite item was Team 3!!

Team 3 was SOOOOO funny, that it almost made me laugh until I died!! You’re probably wondering what was SOOOOO funny! Well, Mrs Barks was telling us some facts about the All Black’s breakfast- which was Weet Bix. Then, I got a shock from the colorful bodies that I saw going up the stage. It was Ms Walters, Mrs Lavakula and Mrs Burnes!! Ms Walters was the Canadian rugby, Ms Burnes was France and Mrs Lavakula was the ALMIGHTY All Blacks!!! They had to get one kid for each team to help them in their SUPER FUN challenge. The kids were Jay-Lee, Levi and Tauwhare. The challenge was that the teachers were going to eat Weet Bix, but they weren't going to use their hands, they were going to use the kids hands behind what them. Luckily, the teachers still ate the cereal! All the Weet Bix was going ALL over the Ms Burnes desk and all the laughs that were trapped inside my body came out!!!! Mrs Lavakula won! I was so sad that the team 3’s item was finished.

I can’t wait what’s in store for us next term because I love Immersion Assembly's from all the funny or maybe horrific and terrific things that the teachers sometimes do.
