APRA Uke Can Do It Competition

Last week our movie “Best Friends” played at The Manaiakalani Film Festival.  The idea for our movie came from a song we had written for the APRA Uke Can Do It Competition.  We were very excited to hear this week that our song had been placed second.  The following is the application we sent in with our song. 

This group is from Room 6 St Pius X Catholic School.
We are Pacific Islanders and love to play the ukes.
We also love to make up songs and perform to others by showing our talents.
We hope our song inspires you to never turn away from your best friend.
Never forget that your friends will always be there for you.
                       ST PIUS X LEGENDS!

Manaiakalani Film Festival

This year Room 6 have three movies playing at The Manaiakalani Film Festival. Our movies were created to share our learning about virtues that are important to us. The virtues help guide us every day to be the best we can be. They help us with our learning and support us to make the right decisions. 

Each of our movies represents one of these virtues: hope, perseverance and courage.
