The Korowai

Last term everyone made a piece of art to show the school. Our class made a Korowai. Our teacher photo copied some paper feathers then our class used a hot or a cold color on it with crayons. With the hot or cold colors we made patterns, then at the back of the feathers we wrote a goal that did not need to be as a school goal but a life goal. Then if you had a cold color crayon you get a hot color dye, dry it, then cut it up. When you have done all of this, then stick it on the cardboard. I just enjoyed making art. My favorite part was  putting the dye on and watching it come off the crayons.




Basketball

In Te Ngahere on Monday we did basketball.Our coach was one of our teachers, Mr Lindsay taught us how to dribble properly there was a rhythm to your feet and the ball. Before the end of the lesson we played Piggy in the middle but you had to move faster .The year 7&8’s got an extra lesson because the year 6’s  where too noisy so Mr Lindsay said he wasn’t interested.

Maromaku

On Friday, some students from Paihia School went to Maromaku to play Rugby and Netball. I played for the year 7&8 Rugby team. We played Pakaraka, Mototau, Whangaruru and Whananaki. I think we played very well but next time I believe we need to work on spreading out more and calling for the ball.
