Simon Immersion Assembly

It was the first day of the term and everyone was dying to see what their team is doing for this term.  The hall was a bit chilly, I sat down with my class and waited to see what the topic for the term was.  Our topic for this term is “As I see it” and our team, Team 4 is learning about Comic Books.  Mr Somerville was called Team Leader America and he was dressed in blue with a shield.  Mr Goodwin was called Bat Guy and dressed in all black.  Miss Lavakula dressed as Wonder Woman, but her name was Wondering Woman and Mr Baxendine was a little teddy bear called Bear Baxendine and he steals netbooks, so he was a baddy.  They all looked Awesome!  Comics have an old history going back as far as 1827, the man who created the first comic was called, Rudolphe Topffer.  WOW!  I had no idea that comics were around for that long, how interesting.  

Team One had a Sound of music theme because their topic is Favourite Things.  That’s a cool topic, but not as cool as comics though.  Mrs George did a quiz and handed chocolates to the students who got the answers right.  The teachers had no costumes which was a bit boring.

Team Twos theme was Seasons of the year.  They had a movie showing all the different seasons which was pretty cool, but the teachers had no costumes and were just sitting down watching the movie with the rest of the school, which is another reason Team Four, my team, are still the BEST!

Team Threes theme was Grand Designs.  The main judge was Mr Blakey and Miss King and Mrs Squires were the builders and the rest of the teachers were the contestants, very cool, but not as cool as Comics.

Team Fives theme was about the Four Wakas which are our house groups for school.  The teachers were dressed as wakas and had a race on the stage, which Mrs Garden won and Mrs Tele’a came second.  Awesome effort, but still not as awesome as Team Fours comic theme.
