The day is here!!! We arrive at Claudelands arena Hamilton around 9:30am and get handed a bright yellow wristband to wear through the day.We all get together with a whole lot of other schools in the auditorium.Where we sang ‘let it go’ from Frozen and ‘shake it off’ by Taylor Swift. We went back to our dressing room where we played all around the circle. At about 3:00pm we started our make up we got most of it done. We had our rehearsal at 4:00pm in front of all the other schools. We had three practices. Then we had another meeting in the auditorium where we  sang ‘do you want to build a snowman’ from Frozen and ‘dark horse’ by Katy Perry. The night began, we were the second to perform, you couldn't really see the  audience because it was dark. At the end of our performance we went up stairs that led us to the sets up high. Here are some photos of the night.

When is the Queens real birthday ?

We celebrate the  Queens Birthday in New Zealand on the 1st of June even though her real birthday is on April the 21st.  We celebrate her birthday by having a public holiday every year.   Queen Elizabeth mother's birthday is on August the 4th.    Here are some facts I have found out about Queen  Elizabeth II  when she was crowned Queen on 6 February 1952, Elizabeth became Head of the Commonwealth. New Zealand is part of the Commonwealth.   Elizabeth  is the oldest living Queen . She was born at 2:40 AM. Elizabeth was a nurse  in the army. Here is some more information about the royals if you click on this link Elizabeth II Wiki


On the Queens real birthday in London they celebrate with a 41 gun royal salute  fired by the kings troops. Royal horse artillery in Hyde park at 12:00 Am at noon. There  is also a 62-gun royal salute fired by the honourable Artillery company at the tower at London at 1:00 pm. Gun salute are customarily fired, both shore and at sea ,as a sign of respect or welcome. No particular ceremony is held on the Queens true birthday although the union flag is on public buildings .
