Have you heard of a young, talented girl named Tasha?

On a beautiful, sunny and hot afternoon, the whole school went to a Duffy assembly at 1:30.
      We went to a clean room where no classes is held at the moment. Mrs. Dines put on a song called Duffy Kid. Some of us didn't remember the lyrics from last year and that's why we got a bit mixed up.
      Meanwhile, a visitor came. Her name is Tasha. "Hello everybody!" she said loudly.
"Hi," we replied back. Tasha introduced herself by telling us how she got to become a singer and a lawyer. She also said that being a lawyer, also requires a lot of reading so we need to read a lot because in every job that we will do, we always need our reading skills and comprehension.
      Then Tasha amazed us with her strong and extremely beautiful voice. When she sang to us Mama knows best, "Wow! her voice sounds incredible," everyone whispered. Tasha was bright and confident and she started singing when she was about 6 years old. When she was finished with her introduction, she gave a Duffy box which was filled with books to us.
      What a blast! I had an awesome time getting to know Tasha and listening to her voice. Next time, I hope I could meet Tasha again and hear her fantastic singing voice.

We are learning to understand and use descriptive language.
I know I can do this when I use appropriate verbs and adjectives to describe Duffy assembly.

The Funniest Duffy Theatre Ever!


On the 4th of August, Duffy theatre visited our school and we had an assembly inside the hall. The whole school went straight to the hall to watch the Duffy show at 1:30 pm. There were 3 people in the play and one of them was a girl named Rosie and the other two were boys named Duffy and uncle Bingo.

The play was about two people who loved reading books and they met uncle Bingo who did not like to read. He said to them, “Guys, I don’t like reading books!” Duffy and Rosie tried to change his mind.
Some of the parts were quite epic, like when uncle Bingo played rugby with Ballerina movements from the book that Rosie gave him. It was funny and weird when we had to make the noises for making ‘The Very Best Book’. We had to shout out loud our favourite book and it magically went into the book. I didn’t think that was true, but it was just for a bit of fun. It was awesome to see them act and talk to us. It was an hour’s performance and everyone enjoyed it.

We had 5 minutes to ask some questions. Then Darrelle went up to the Duffy people and said ‘Thank you’ to them.
