Melville Intermediate - World Cup Video

This is our second video production for 2009. This is edited highlights of the Rugby League World Cups visit to Melville Intermediate. It was edited by Arahia and Vitolina and put together as part of our video work for 2009. We are still working through issues so although the quality of this video may not be the best its important that the students are able to 'get it out there'. We used a microphone to add a commentary at the start of the video! Next we're going to use photo-story to create a logo at the start of, and then closing credits for the end of our videos! After that we're going to look at improving the quality of them.

Melville Intermediate - World Cup Slideshow

One of the fantastic things for students at Melville Intermediate School is the opportunities for technology and options. Last week in computing students were given one hour to complete a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation about the Rugby League World Cup and its visit to Melville Intermediate School. Students had only an hour from start to finish this was produced by Kalib from Room 8.

Melville Intermediate - Rugby League World Cup

Today at school we had a very special visitor, the students were excited about our 'special guest' who came in for assembly... it was the Rugby League World Cup. New Zealand won in 2008 for the first time ever beating Australia in the final. Sport Waikato brought it to the school.

The cup was part of the build up for the Melbourne Storm Vs. Vodafone Warriors NRL pre season game which is taking place at Waikato Stadium this Thursday.









We learnt the following things about the Rugby League World Cup

• The Cup was made in 1954, that makes it 55 years old!
• The Cup has only been won by New Zealand once!
• The Cup weighs 18 kilograms!
• The Cup is worth about $40,000!
• New Zealand have been runners up twice and one it only last year
• The next World Cup will take place in 2013
  

The above picture from our special assembly is of some of our Rugby League Players holding the trophy. Thanks to Sport Waikato for allowing us the opportunity to see up close this very special trophy.
