Magic Messages

Beccy Shirley —

Today the whole school attended the Be Bright, Eat Right Magic Show.

The magic was amazing but there were important messages. We all learnt about the jobs of the vitamins and minerals that we get from eating a healthy, balanced, RAINBOW, diet.

Some Kōwhai children wrote about it.  

Today I went to a magic show. He pulled out a bird from a box! It was so cool. And he did heaps of tricks that were super cool. Then he pulled a bunny out of fire and the bunny was so cute. I just wanted to pat it. It was so fluffy too!  - Theo

Today, at school, in the morning, the whole school went down in the rain to the school hall. We all went down to the hall to watch a magic show about healthy food. The magicians name was Vas and he had two bunnies and eight little birds. One of the bunnies is pale brown and the other one was very bright white.  - Eden

This morning our whole school went down to the LAF to watch a magic show for one hour. The first thing I think he did was he got a chalkboard and started drawing a bird that I think was a dove. Once he had finished drawing, he flicked the chalkboard, still holding it. A bird flew out! It was a dove.  - Frida 

This morning Lyttelton School got to go to a magic show called Be Bright, Eat Right. My favourite part was when he drew a bird and it came out of the back of the drawing, but I saw him holding it. My least favourite part was when he squished a bird! He had put a white bird in a box and then he shook the box and we could hear it shaking around. Then he folded the box into little pieces of two parts together and the bird was not there. So he put it away with a smug grin on is face. A cool part was when he brought our a mirror with a red flag thingy in it. Then he pulled it through the mirror and there was no hole where he had the red flag thing in the mirror. It was also my second favourite part but it was tied with the parts where he could light the boxes and stuff on fire. On the sign on the side, it said Be Bright, Eat Right, Eat healthy food for a better immune system, much more healthy, strong and full of much more energy for yourself. You can do new things with your body. Always eat healthy and help others to eat food that can help you do those things. The things are: A. eyes, C. the fighter E. skin. It also had photos of different people but they were fruit!   -  Indigo

Today in the morning we went to a magic show. It was called Be Bright, Eat Right. He did all kinds of tricks like drawing a bird.  He made the bird come to life. He moved the cloth into a fire and then it turned into a bunny.  - Anna

This morning the school came to the hall for a magic show. He brought four birds but he had eight birds. He gets one every summer. He squashed the birds in a box. It was a white bird. We could hear it shaking around. He said that if you eat bad food you can't  fit in any good food. Vitamin A helps your eyes. Elijah kept breaking the wand and the magician banged it against a table and it didn't break. He put the end of the wand on and it shot off and everyone laughed, but I got bored at some points.  - Liam

In the morning the whole school went to a magic show. The magic show was called Be Bright, Eat Right. The magician drew a picture of a bird on a chalkboard and the picture came alive. He can make a bunny appear from fire. The bunny's name was Lollipop is a white lop-eared bunny. Lollipop looks like Alice, my bunny. The magician turned a lot of things into flowers. - Rosa
