Connected

Today was our AMAZING dance performance, showing all the learning we have done around the idea of 'Connected'. We had lots of fun performing, and it was very exciting to have such big audiences, both for today, and for yesterday's performance for the rest of the school. Thanks to everyone who supported us, and especially to Glenn for the superb lighting. Here are a few photos of the performance. We'll add some more, and also the videos of the dances as we organise them.

Room 30 makes the news!

Room 30 has made headlines with their work alongside the Auckland Art Gallery and artist Judy Darragh. What an awesome experience.
