Rugby practice

On Wednesday the whole school went down to see the Samoan team practice for their rugby game this Sunday. First we cheered and sang songs. Next we got flags and waved them. After that we watched them, of course for a long time. Then we went back to school.

Going to Western Springs

On Wednesday we went to  Western springs to watch the Manu Samoa  practice their kicks and  high kicks. Then when they arrived we said lets go Samoa. lets go!  It was really loud. I  couldn't  hear the man speaking . After that we sang a Samoan song called, Le Aute and said CHOO. The other school on the other side was trying to get louder than us but we were louder.  We hope Manu Samoa win against Fiji on Sunday !

Our crazy morning tea

On Monday 6th of September three Manu Samoa rugby team players came to our school. It was crazy. Everyone wanted an autograph from each rugby player. Children were running in and out the class getting new things that they could sign. Everybody got autographs  but it was packed people keeped pushing and tugging. In was chaos  but so much fun getting to meet the three rugby team players .They all had a different autograph. One autograph was huge the other two were small . We loved it  because it was the first time ever we all got to meet them. It was even more special since our school has adopted Manu Samoa as our rugby team!

GLS Live Week 1 - Shout for Samoa

Talofa and welcome back to Term 3.

This term marks the start of the Rugby World Cup 2011 hosted here in New Zealand. Each community had the opportunity to adopt a team to welcome them to our nation and make them feel at home.


Our school and community have adopted Manu Samoa which is great as Samoan's have historical roots in Grey Lynn.


This weeks' edition is all about Samoa. We have also worked hard on our camera work and use of the green screen.

Enjoy the episode and please comment !
