It’s a beautiful story about a young Polynesian girl from

the movie on your blog. If you’ve seen the movie, you can
include your favourite part! Tell us as much as you can about
the movie. What is it about? Who are the main characters in the
movie? What do they do in the movie? Where do they go?
Moana is a movie adventure movies which I like. It started off
when they were low on food and also the environment was fading
away. So moana try to leave but always getting caught by his dad.
The dad will not allow anyone to leave the island because
it is very dangerous in the outer world. Moana’s grandma
always encourage her to go and save the world from Te Ka.
But one day the grandma was very ill. She told Moana to
go and save the world but you have to find Maui first, so
Moana got her things and ran to the boat she quickly left.
While she was talking to hei hei she got pushed by a wave to
an Island which apparently, that was were maui lives. So both
went to battle Te Fiti and restore the heart of Moana.
I’ve watched this movie a lot of times so i'm going to tell you
my favourite part of the movie. My favourite part of the movie is
when Moana restores the heart of Te Fiti and also the reaction
when Maui got his hook back which Te Fiti fixed.

about being a farmer?
Interesting thing was how they keep there promise from a
long time ago saying that they will plant tomatoes, peas and
more. After a decade or two there were all these plants and
vegetables planted. Also it is amazing that the show has been
going on for 52 yrs now. That really is a very long time.
Challenging thing is shaving the sheep's wool, planting
plants and vegetable and also waking up early in the
morning just to do all these stuff. Also waking up early
to work at the animals

Lyrics:
(Here's another one)
Come on
I'm here to stay baby
For me there's no mucking around
I do this purely for music
Never for the money of fame
I’m blessed with this music
It's my one heart desire
Surely music takes me higher
To a place i’ve never been before
(General Fiyah, watch it man)
I mess around come quick nobody tell me what they think
Now don’t ever forget why we do this music
Not for the popularity, money other things
Yo purley cause we have the passion for the music
The drum and bass makes you move your waist
Meanwhile this reggae music take you to a higher place
Come and dance up and down
Come and do the rubber duck
Come join the fun there's from for everyone
No room for hate leave your trouble at the gates
General fiyah on the rhythm, THD got you moving
I'm here to stay baby
For me there's no mucking around
I do this purely for music
Never for the money of fame
I’m blessed with this music
It's my one heart desire
Surely music takes me higher
To a place i’ve never been before x2
(General fiyah, Watch it man)
I mess around come quick nobody tell me what they think
Now don’t ever forget why we do this music
Not for the popularity, money other things
Yo purley cause we have the passion for the music
The drum and bass makes you move your waist
Meanwhile this reggae music take you to a higher place
Come and dance up and down
Come and do the rubber duck
Come join the fun there's from for everyone
No room for hate leave your trouble at the gates
General fiyah on the rhythm, THD got you moving.
(That's ALL)
