Waiata Assembly Performance

On Friday 1st of April Kahikitea Team performed a waiata we learned at our Noho to the school at assembly. 2 years ago when I was a year 3, I joined the kapahaka group and we learnt the whole thing but for the year 5&6's we only did half of it. It was really exciting performing to over 300 people.    

Pirongia School Fair

Nobody noticed when I turned up at the room 9 stall late for my time slot, well until I said hi to Ella.J. It took a while before anyone bought any treats from the side of the stall I was selling treats from, but at the end of the fair we had raised at least $1000!

All money raised at the fair goes forward to the new sports shed for the school.

Triathalon

It's triathlon day and I'm ready to race.I don't know why but I loved it: First we ran around the school block 1 time. Then we had to bike around the rugby field 2 times. Finally we had to swim 5 laps of the pool and then  we ran between the flags up to Debbie and say our house. There was a tent giving out free juice and water for the students who raced . It was fun!!!              

Marae Noho

The Kahikitea team Marae Noho was really awesome it was fun learning heaps of cultural things. I learnt how to carve and weave putiputi out of harekeke flax. There are 2 types of flowers that I learnt how to make out of hareke.  

                                                                                                                                                     
we also learnt a waiata and stick games it was cool as. Then, a few weeks after, we performed it to the school at assembly. The reason of the trip was for us to know each other better.
