Duffy Role Model

Yesterday, Glenbrae School had its Duffy Role Model Assembly. Our Role Model was Sam James Verlinden. Hes also known as Sam V, Sam V is a famous Musician, Song writer, Singer and an Actor.

Sam spoke to us about the importance of reading books and reading because he felt that these were the things that helped him be an Famous Musician.

Sam Studied at the Auckland University of Technology and a attive a bachelor degree and communication.

We had a lot of fun with Sam because he taught us a game called Bumfa. This game involved clapping. After we played the game he gave out the Duffy book prizes to each class.

I felt very excited when Sam sang us his favourite song "What you done for me" I hope Sam V comes back to our school.
