Artsplash

This term, all of the students in Harakeke have been busy learning the songs for the Artsplash festival run by the Wellington City Council. On Monday night, 55 students performed at the Michael Fowler Centre alongside a range of other schools from the greater Wellington region.  






We sang 13 songs, accompanied by an orchestra from Chilton St James. There was also a band and a dance group to add to the entertainment. 

The students all performed beautifully and had a great time singing in front of a huge audience.  There were some real groovers in the Amesbury choir during 'Stayin' Alive'. This song was a personal favourite of most of the students.  
 

 
 


Their muppet sock puppets looked absolutely fantastic when we sang 'Life's a Happy Song' from 'The Muppet Movie'.  

Big congratulations must go to Sharmani Draper, Ryan Topp, Caitlin Collins and Anaiya Bhola who accompanied the massed choir on their ukuleles for the Hawaiian song 'Pearly Shells'.  
They did themselves and the school proud.

Well done Amesbury School!
