Tamaki College's Samoan Group!..

Tamaki Samoan Group!..

Walking into the hall all I could see was the Tamaki Samoan group on stage. I was wondering why they were here but as they were practice there dance I knew they were here to perform to our school. I saw people that came to our school last year on stage to. As I was getting ready for assembly all I heard at the back of my ear was a sasa that they were doing.

When the bell rang they went to the music room and our school came into the hall. I was excited to see them perform because I am Samoan and also I saw them perform at the Polyfest  They did well at poly and there school also came in 4 places which I don't know.

"It time for Tamaki Samoan to perform to our school" As Mr Burt said.
As there walking on stage I spotted my cousin. Appearing on stage they firstly sang a song and then did there dance. It was a good performance because it made Mr Jacobson cry in a happy way. I enjoyed it and also our school did.

No matter if your not Samoan you can always join because most people that ain't Samoan still perform with Samoan's. I can't wait until next year because I'm going to be a year 9 attended Tamaki and I'm going to try work my way into the Samoan group.

Fijian Flag Article

The current flag of Fiji was adopted on October the 10 1970, The flag had remained the same as during the colonial period. Also It has remained unchanged since the Fijian was declared a republic in 1987. The current flag is very similar to the colonial ensign it used prior to independence, the main differences being the latter used a darker shade of blue and displayed the entire Fijian coat of arms as opposed to just the shield.

The flag of Fiji is a shade of a blue sky with the British Union Jack in the upper left corner. To the right of the Union Jack there a  shield from the coat of arms of Fiji. The blue sky of the Fiji flag reflects the island nation's strong relationship with the Pacific Ocean that surrounds it. The British Union Jack represents Fiji's history as a colony of the United Kingdom.

The flag of the UK in the upper hoist-side quadrant and the Fijian shield centered on the outer half of the flag; the blue symbolizes the Pacific ocean and the Union Jack reflects the links with Great Britain the shield taken from Fiji's coat of arms depicts a yellow lion above a white field quartered by the cross of Saint George; the four quarters depict stalks of sugar cane. A palm tree, bananas, and a white dove.

Fiji held a competition upon its independence to design a new Fiji flag, but their flag now looks really similar to their old flag. This might be because Fiji still has strong cheap and political ties with Britain.
