In our space we celebrate all of our cultures. Earlier in the term we clebrated Samoan Language Week. We spent some time learning how to introduce ourselves in Samoan and say where we are from and how old we are. Here is Daniel's introduction.
We are Year 5 and 6 Learners Saint Pius X Catholic School in Auckland, New Zealand and our teachers are Miss Nees-Kairua, Mr Gaffney and Mrs Tui. We work in a collaborative space.

St Pius X Samoan Siva for Samoan Language Week - By Moala
On last week Friday 29thy of May,
St Pius X School plus parents and Felise were there.
We were doing a Samoan dance. The reason why we were doing a
Samoan dance celebration was because it was Samoan language week.
Father Felise was talking in Samoan.
Then Mr.Tai came up with a fluffy thing,
he also was holding a sword.
We all moved to the other side so
the girls in the other group could dance.
Everyone was clapping when they were done.
The next group came up and did their dance.
Once they were done with their dance everyone
was clapping when they were finished.
Finally it was the last group the people who were sitting was clapping to the beat the people who were standing was making lot's of noise.
The people who were standing was making the sound "chihoo!".

My thoughts of the celebration was a smart and excellent idea. I felt happy and exited
