 Auckland Philharmonia  Orchestra - Kiwi Kapers

Today 6 classes from our School (Tamaki Primary) went on a trip (finally), we were going to APO (Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra).

Before we went to the bus our class Room 8 read a pamphlet about what we were going to see, and we basically did some work about that like the vocabs and what the mean and something new we learnt about in the Pamphlet. We also had our quick morning tea for about 20 minutes.


We were then ready so we went to the hall and got into our groups and got on to the bus, half an hour passed and we were at our destination we trudged to the place called Aotea centre where the performance was going to start at it was quite an immense place, as we were walking through the area some ushers appeared and ushered us to our seats.


As we sat down we waited a few minutes until all the musicians sat down at their seats and the light started to fade away. The show began with some music by the composer named Rossini. I was gonna fall asleep but the song made me think that I was in the farm chasing my escaping animals!.


The first songs that were played were from a composer named Gioachino Rossini, He was one of the most famous composers.

They played a few more songs, it played nicely and there were even actors and actors acting on stage. It was fabulous, and it took pretty much an hour but I loved it. It was amazing.


Conclusion

This was the first time going to the orchestra and my experience was great. I loved the orchestra and I would love to go again. The story and history of music is definitely one of the best.

SUMMARY:

Many people living in New Zealand enjoyed good times in the decades following the Second World War. There were so many jobs , especially young Maori people wanted to be part of the action. Migration is the movement of people from one place to, either within a country or between countries. Maori moved for a lot of reasons mostly because of the jobs in the city. The Maori people were low paid for their jobs so the government set up training schemes so that they can qualify with their skills in work. Many Maori people liked being security, dancing, live music, and meeting new people.


3 connections:

  1. I knew that people migrated from other places/countries for jobs but I didn’t know that it included Maori people. I only knew that it was pacific people ONLY!

  2. I can connect that this is also related to the DAWN RAIDS

    1. My grandparents know what has happened but they don’t talk about it!


    5 QUESTIONS

    • Why did the people get low pay?

    • Why did young Maori people want jobs really early?

    • How many people applied for jobs?

    • Did any other countries create an invitation for people to come and work in their country?

    • What was the age that you should reach to go work?

    Summary .2

    Many people that were living in NZ had great times in the generation following the second world war. The economy grew really quick and there were plenty of jobs that people could take place with, mostly the maori’s wanted to take part with. Some people even left their home and moved closer to the city to work there. They were paid on low but they were happy and grateful for everything, by 1971, almost three quarters of the maori population lived in town,maori people are still doing traditional moari cultural.` By the end of the 1960’s maori had the right to debate and take action on key issues, including treaty and te reo moari. They purposely spoke their culture to assimilate and adopt the European ways.
