Tamakitoday - Recommends...

One blog that I'd really suggest that you view is linked here. This is Mr Lamshed's class in Australia. In Australia like New Zealand students are currently on their end of year Summer break.

In 2009 Mr Lamshed's class at Hackham East School is going to be a Boys Classroom with a lot of the work focussed on online work and cultural activites. They have already posted a number of videos and material and footage from the end of 2008 and you can tell its going to be an outstanding stite. Would strongly recommend that you check it out!

Tamaki Int - Cook Island Solo Dance

This is our second to last highlight from our 2008 Cultural Show - this dance is one of the solo items and its Latrell's performance from Calliope House. All of the four school houses had to have an individual dance act that represented the cutlures of the students at Tamaki Intermediate School. This is a traditional solo Cook Island dance. Latrell also performed a version of this on our schools trip to the Cook Islands in 2008. Filmed by Victor at Tamaki Intermediate School on Friday 5th December at the Tamaki Intermediate School Hall.

Tamaki Int. - Indian Girls Group Dance

As part of our Tamaki Intermediate Haka Waiata Festival 2008 our students had to perform five acts in total that represented some of the different cultures at Tamaki Intermediate School. This act is the Girls Indian Group from Calliope House (Red - hence the uniforms). The students were taught this traditional Indian Dance by one of the Calliope House Teachers who was Mrs Sigamoney. They practised themsevles leading up to the competition. Regular followers of this site may recognise some of the students in this act! Filmed during the festival by Victor on Friday 5th December 2008 at Tamaki Intermediate School Hall.

Students in New Zealand have another two weeks of holidays before the end of our summer holidays with students back in early February in most places. A reminder that this site is being maintained as a static site - new posts (2009) relating to the work of the teacher will be posted on our new site opening in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your visit.

Tamaki Int - Technical Posting Difficulties

Due to unforeseen circumstances Tamakitoday is experiencing some significant posting difficulties and will not resume posting until next week. This site is dedicated to the students of Room Six of Tamaki Intermediate School who were students in the class in 2008. The teacher in charge of this site has changed schools and towns and the new site will begin posting at the end of this month. In the meantime if you leave a comment we will return the compliment although it might not be straight away for the next week or so. Many thanks for your visit to this site we really appreciate it.
