Raps: Sir Edmund Hillary and Lord Rutherford of Nelson

Today we completed our raps.
We hope you enjoy these!

Here are our lyrics:

Sir Edmund Hillary Rap

By James and Joseph

Sir Edmund Hillary was born in Auckland

He was being chased by climbers up the mountain

He was wise and famous until he died

he didn’t give up, he just tried

So whatever you do,

Just don’t give up,

like Sir Edmund Hillary.

He just kept climbing

and if you see him on the $5 note,

make sure you say hello.

Lord Rutherford Of Nelson Rap

By Olly, Jonte and Daniel

Hey everybody have you heard of a man

His name is Ernest Rutherford, (Dan..)

He split an atom in half

By throwing other atoms in its path.

An atom is the smallest bit of something

It has lots of rays of energy, (sing..)

Ernest of Nelson, first man on earth

We all know what he is worth

($100 bill, yo!)

He really was quite smart,Ernest is the WISEst learner

He persevered and worked it out

And showed us all his heart.

Sir Edmund Hillary Rap

By Peni and Alex

Here are some things you probably don’t know

About Edmund Hillary, yo

He climbed Mount Everest with his friend Tenzing

Here is his message:

Never give up

If you climb that mountain

You’ll probably need Fresh Up

He was born in 1919

He died aged 88

Always try new things

That’s why he’s on the $5 note

Yeah, yeah, Edmund Hillary, yeah, yeah, Edmund Hillary

EDMUND…HILLARY
