The NED Show

Check out the Ned Show website by clicking here! Today we went to the NED show. NED stands for "Never give up", "Encourage others", "Do your best". Some of it was VERY funny! Some people thought that he was a magician. He was really good at doing different tricks with the yo-yo. Some of the tricks he performed were "around the world", "rock-a-bye baby", "7-3", "walking the dog" and "ski lift". We really liked it when he put the ripped up tissue into his mouth and then pulled it out and it was a rainbow paper chain. It was so long...it went on and on and on! The rainbow paper chain ripped and then he said "mama".

John on the Saxophone!!

I really enjoyed it when my dad played the sax in Room 4. (Meg). My favourite part was playing "We Wish you a Merry Christmas." (Abbey). I liked it how John could play 3 different types of saxophone!

What Now

On Sunday I went to Wellington city. It was windy and dark at 7 o'clock in the morning. We met Adam from What Now. There was lots of gunge in bottles and buckets. I played ready steady. It is a game that has people who go towards the buckets and pour the gunge in. My team didn't win. At the end of What Now I went to the playground. I saw Miss Wooles at the playground. by Jacob Click here to see me playing seaweed!
