Week 14: Last few days of rehearsals....

We have an exciting week ahead of us...
I hope you have been busy learning your lines over the weekend because there will be no scripts allowed on stage this week. We now need to focus on your acting skills!
Costumes need to be in school to be checked; there will be a full run through in costume on Wednesday afternoon so that we can sort out the lights and music.
On Thursday morning we will be watching the KS1 Dress rehearsal and they will be joining us for our Dress rehearsal on Friday morning.

What have you learnt about Nelson Mandela? What sort of person was he? What questions would you have liked to ask him?

I think Nelson Mandela was a great man because he had very strong beliefs in what he thought and didn't stop believing in them.I would've loved to meet him he sounded like a very generous and interesting person.Did you know he was the first person in his in his whole family to go to school.

Hello everyone,
WOW! It seems like another busy week. I know all my lines and will be bringing my costume in tomorrow.

Nelson Mandela was a amazing person. Nelson Mandela was in prison for 27 years. But that didn't stop him believing that there should be peace between black and white people.If I had,had the chance to have met Nelson Mandela I would have asked him loads of questions. Some of these would be:
1) What inspired you to help bring peace between black and white people?
2)What would you do to entertain yourself when you were imprisoned at Robben Island?

Nelson Mandela was former president of South Africa. He was born on July18th 1918 in Mvezo. He was the first black president of South Africa from 1994 until 1999. Nelson Mandela became a hero to people all over the world because of his fight for peace and equality.

Nelson Mandela led people, white as well as black, in a peaceful protest against apartheid (separating people by the colour of their skin).

Because of this,
in 1961 Africa left common wealth. Millions of countries were in support of anti-apartheid.

Entertainers and sport teams were refusing to go to Africa.

Nelson Mandela was a man who just wanted black and white people to be treated the same as each other. Now I think that was a very strong beleif of Nelson Mandela. He was determined that when he was let out of jail he will bring peace between the black and the white.It is a very sad time but he improved our behavior so well we need to carry on and not let Nelson down.

Nelson Mendela went to jail because he tried to make black and white people to be the same.Also he was in jail for 27 years.

The play is getting gooder and gooder everyday. Now we haven't got the script it is better because we are not allways looking at the floor. People just need to be louder when they sing and saying their lines.It's a verry busy week for Mrs Greens class.

Nelson Mandellia parent originally wanted him to become a tribe leader when he was older. Did you know that Nelson Mandellia was called a terrorist because of his original eggretion against white people he even trained with the British army to attack white people. Sept over all I think he was a good man and a great inspiration to anyone who wants to stand up for so anything they believe in.

I think that Nelson Mandela was a great person and shouldn't jave been treated how he was.I learnt that all he wanted was peace with black and white.I think that it must have been awful being a black person in the time that he lived.
