Tiniroto School 2011 



//Our years learning around movie making was concluded with our Big Movie. Students wrote the script including the learning they were doing in other curriculum areas such as kapa haka and hip-hop dancing. They wanted to include different techniques and highlight issues such as the Christchurch earthquake. It has come together as a fantastic visual symphony! Enjoy the skills and talents of the Tiniroto Students. Note vertually all filming, editing, music cutting and special effects were completed by students. //

On reflection there are parts which are too long and our presenters are creating a Success Criteria to enhance their performance. Mrs Roadley was the final editor and director but she is aiming to have students take over this role ASAP.

At Tiniroto we are fortunate to often have experts leading our learning. We use ICT to capture their models enabling us to utilise their skills long after they have left. Here is a short clip made using MovieMaker showing how ICT enhanced our learning in Kapa Haka: media type="youtube" key="toZXiUpVqZo?fs=1" height="276" width="345"
