Today the year 6's, 5's and a small amount of 4's went to Ilminster, an intermediate, to watch the Green team perform a play. The play was about half an hour and had an environmental theme. The Green team is a group of people that practices and eventually performs plays that always have an enviro theme.
The play started with a Grandma crayfish, called Nanny Kōura telling two little crayfish a story. After Nanny Kōura finished telling the story the little crayfish beg for another story, so she decided to tell the story of how she saved the world from aliens. This is when the story really started. Then a group of kids entered on the opposite side of the stage and started playing on bikes, scooters and skateboards. They ate some lollies and left the rubbish on the ground!
Almost straight afterwards Nanny Kōura heard a strange, rattling and clunking noise ,and a golden brown looking robot walked out and stared at the crowd afterwards two crayfish looking creatures, called Morons came out and started complaining about the oxygen and the gravitational pull of earth. They inspected the skatepark and said " This is a suitable place for the intergalactic space dump. " Out marched a regal looking alien, the King Moron and asked whether this was the perfect place of for the intergalactic space dump, the Morons replied, " Yes, your Moronness. " " I want your answer in dance ! " retorted the King, so the Morons had to dance their answers, but the King kept on asking questions ! The Morons dumped their rubbish including the golden brown robot.
The next day the group of kids came back to play and were completely shocked, their skatepark was COVERED in strange rubbish. One curious boy reached out and touched the rubbish and got zapped by a jolt of electricity! "Don't touch that guys, I think it's dangerous!" he said. The robot chose that exact moment to reveal himself." Ahhhh!!" The kids shrieked. After calming down the kids asked " Who dumped this rubbish?" " My masters, the Morons" " Can you call them for us?", the robot raised his hand, kind of like the metal from him was acting as a radio transmitter. Shortly afterwards the King, with his Moron minions strode in, like he was in a hurry, and demanded, " Who dares to summon the Moron king?" the kids explained how they wanted them to remove the rubbish from their skatepark. " No" said the king and stalked off.
"What should we do? " despaired the kids, " I know! Lets ask Nanny Kōura, she always knows what to do." So they set off to the stream with the robot. They asked her what to do and she replied, " Well now you know how I feel when you dump your rubbish that eventually washes down to me! But don't worry I will help you. Call back those aliens! " The robot obliged and called them back. Just like before the king bustled in demanding who dared to call- but before he finished the sentence he dropped to his knees and said " Your royal highness, forgive me ! " Nanny Kōura was confused, who is he talking to ? Then Kina said " I think he is talking to you, Nanny Kōura ! You do look a lot like them." So she played along and pretended to be the Morons long lost queen, she ordered them to take their mess back to their planet. The kids slowly started sneaking away but before they could go Nanny Kōura snapped " Just where do you think you are going!? come back here and tidy up YOUR mess ! " So the kids tidied up all the sweet wrappers, plastic bags and food containers. Afterwards the skatepark looked a lot more tidy!
I think the moral of this play is to respect others environments, tidy up after yourself and Reduce, Recycle, Reuse!
