Samoan Sasa by Grade 2
The Dance Festival was lots of fun! Dances came from the Renaissance, Scotland, USA, Middle East, Ireland, Mexico, France, and included swing and creative movement. Check out this site to see Grade 2 do the Samoan Sasa, thanks to the bloggers of the Tamaki School in New Zealand. They taught it to us online!

Great gig in Genova by Junior Choir
Ambrit Junior Choir took Genova by storm. Our very appreciative audience of the International School of Genova heard us sing. We hope we can host them some day at our school. Many thanks to them for giving us this opportunity!
Genova is a beautiful city. Singers sang their concert, but they also toured the city! What did we see? Paganini's violin, Genova Aquarium, Palazzi Tursi, Rosso & Bianco, went to the top of the oldest working lighthouse in the world, Roberto Scandiuzzi & San Carlo Felice symphony & chorus at the Theater, Maritime museum, little streets and good pesto, ice cream and pizza Genovese. We had sunny Italian weather. Genova is a port city, and we were in a great hotel only 20 steps from the sea. Renzo Piano's fancy structure on the port is really something, and the last day we were there we took advantage of the Children's Fair and rode trikes, jumped on trampolines, tried out some archery, and ate lots of Genovese focaccia.
Congratulations to the singers, who were professional on stage, and great tourists while visiting the city.
