For the last 2 weeks, room 10 has been studying about statistics. Our focus question was: What is the ethnic makeup of Glenbrae School?

Duffy Role Model Assembly

Yesterday, Glenbrae School had its Duffy Role Model Assembly. Our Role Model was Sam James Verlinden. He is also known as Sam V. Sam V is famous as a musician, song writer, singer and actor.

Sam spoke to us about the importance of books and reading because he felt that these were the things which helped him become a successful musician.

Sam studdy at the Auckland University of technology and obtained a bachelor degrees in communication. We had a lot of fun with Sam because he taught us a game called Poom Faa. This game involves clapping. After we played the game he gave out the duffy book prizes to each class.

I felt so SHOCKED when Sam sang his favourite song
