When Nanny Kōura walked on stage, my heart filled with joy. If I went to Ilminster, that was what I wanted to be doing. MLH and some of Room 3 and 4 had gone to see a play put together by the Ilminster Intermediate Green team. They were a group of students from the school that made plays and performances about enviro.
Two of Nanny Kōura's mokopuna ( grandchildren ) were sitting on the floor while Nanny Kōura told them a story. The story was about when Nanny Kōura told the aliens to stop dumping rubbish on earth. A group of children were playing at the skate park, dropping their rubbish everywhere.
After the kids had left, an alien ship landed behind the skate park, throwing their rubbish everywhere. The kids came back to find their skate park trashed. The kids thought it would be best for them to see Nanny Kōura. But she told them that what goes around comes around, and they shouldn't be dumping rubbish either. After a while Nanny Kōura agreed to helping them, she asked the kids to bring the aliens to her.
Once the aliens arrived, Nanny Kōura told them not to dump their rubbish on earth. The aliens dropped to their knees, thinking she was the alien queen! Nanny Kōura played along with it. She instructed for the aliens and the children to clean up the mess they had made.
I loved watching the performance and I can't wait to do something like that at Ilminster! Here are some photos:
