Passion project - Musical Theatre

For my Passion projects I have picked Musical Theatre. This year we are doing the musical called Bugsy Malone 


I Auditions for Blousey, but I didn't get that part so I am now going to be Roxy Robinson. 

There is a audition part in this musical and I might be a dancing Unicorn. 

The Musical characters are, Bugsy, Blousey, Fat Sam + his gang, Bronx Charlie, Roxy Robinson (Roxy the Weasel) Pop Becker, Fizzy, Paper boy, Radio Announcer, Louis (Fat Sams gang), Snake Eyes (Fat Sams gang), Waiter, English Reporter, Louella, Dandy Dan, Doodle, Tillie, Loretta, Dotty, Tallulah, Lena, Seymour Scoop (Cop), Smolsky (Cop), Knuckels (Fat Sams gang), Shady, Leroy, Cagey Joe, Bangles and Baby-face. 

As you are all probaley thinking there are some weird names in this musical, but if you watch the whole thing it will make sense.

My Character is Roxy Robinson. In the first five minutes I get hit with a splurge gun and then I die. 




Just some photos and videos.

I will be posting more about this journey and hope you will enjoy.


Bye :D

Google Search page

In Cyber smart we are learning to use the filters bar on google search. 
The filters are there to help you find more information about what your searching. We used Austin Post as a example. 



Bonus question: How did Austin choose the name Post Malone? Answer: According to Post, he chose Post Malone as his stage name when he was 14 or 15. The name was rumored to be a reference to the professional basketball player Karl Malone, but Post later explained that while 'Post' is his last name, he used a "rap name generator" to get "Malone".

When you search things up on google it has this spider web, that takes you to all these different sites and picks them for you.

Fish in a tree

Through out this year our class has been reading a book called fish in a tree. It is about a young girl called Ally Nickerson. Ally Nickerson didn't realize that she actually had dyslexia. 
At the beginning of the book Ally had no friends and she thought she was dumb, because she didn't know she had dyslexia. Ally actually got bullied by these 2 girls named Shay and Jessica. Later in the book she got closer to some people Albert and Keisha they ended up being really good friends. 

The author of the book is Lynda Mullaly Hunt.Image result for who is the author of fish in a tree

In the story there was a lot of drama between Shay, Jessica and Ally. More later in the book Jessica was surprisingly nicer to Ally. 

This book was actually really interesting and I would love to watch a movie if there is one.

Orana park

Yesterday the year 7s went to Orana Park. The animals we saw were Kiwi, Kea, Spider monkeys,
Tigers, Lions,
Tasmanian Devil, Gorillas, Orangutans, Rhino, Giraffes, Zebra, Buffalo and Cheetah.


My favourite animal was the Zebra. Do you know if Zebras are black with white stripes or white
with black stripes?
Did you know that Orangutans wear sacks to protect them from the sun or rain?
Did you know that big cats don’t purr? You know normal cats purr but big cats don’t.
Cheetahs on the other hand they are the only big cat that purr.

If you go to Orana Park check out the emu, you can hear them talk. Their talking sounds like drums.
Straight drums.
Spider monkeys use their tails like a 3rd limb. They use their tail as support to keep
-their balance when they are swinging on their rope.
Tasmanian Devils have sharp teeth. They may look cute but they're actually endangered because they
have a face trauma and if they bite each other it will spread.
Tasmanian devils carry their babies in pouches.
Did you know Kea are really smart but also really naughty. Chocolate is toxic to them as well.
Kiwis need strong legs so they can kick they predators. They don’t have hollow legs like normal birds do.
Kiwis can’t fly because of their wings that aren't structured fully.
Did you know that a rhinos horns are made out of the same stuff as your Finger/toe nails and your hair?
This is known as keritan.

Giraffes tongues were actually pink but they turned purple to protect it from getting sunburnt in the hot
weather where they're from (South Africa). Giraffes can also kick in every direction.
Kiwis hold their eggs inside them for about 28 days and when their little baby is 6 weeks
old they go and live by themselves.
The oldest ape is the big brother boss, you must give him everything he wants.
The big brother is a silver back but the other 2 apes are younger.
Did you know that you can hear a lions roar from 5 miles away?
Our leader was Elaine she was really nice. We all had fun at Orana park.
We even got to hold a Rhinos horn.
