KAPA HAKA

The guitar started to play, we slowly walked forward  as Hunter started to sing Tu Mai Ra. We knelt as Hunter sung with lots of mana.  It felt good.  Yesterday, Wainui Beach School went to the Turanganui Schools' Maori Cultural Festival at the Gisborne Showgrounds.  There were heaps of people there and it felt a bit nerve wracking to be on stage!

A Utina A Hi A Utina A Hi all the boys chanted as we marched to the front of the stage. The kaea started to chant, HI Au Au Aue ha HI. After our two hakas the girls walked up between the lines of boys and sung Wainui e. For our last song we sung He Honore .

At the end everyone came off with a smile on their face. I was really proud of myself because  didn't want to do it at first. But I did anyway and I'm proud of myself. Yea. Overall the school did awesome.

Thunder Always Strikes Before A Hurricane

Last saturday my soccer team was in the A grade cup final. Last year we lost in the final to the same team but this year bet them 5-1. At half time the score was 2-0 but we were starting to pull ahead but ther score which put them right back in the game it was a hard game because the whole Mangapa team was playing there best But so were we. We also won the league cup because we were undefeated. Here's a photo of the table a the end of the season.

Cross Country 2019

Today we had Cross Country. We started to walk down at 9.15 am. We all walked down in our houses. I'm in red house which is called Karoro.

I came second in a sprint race at the end with  Ziggy. Ziggy is the fastest in Gisborne for his age. I was leading the whole way until right at the end. Now i've  got 5 second place certificates on my wall.

Right at the start Jack smack me in the nose and then my nose started to bleed. At the end I couldn't breath. I stayed too watch the juniors. Overall It was good, fun day.

Revisting Term Two

In term two we went to the Technology Museum for retro tech . My favourite part was the Fire trucks because you can go on top and inside. I hope we can go again.

We also saw the trains at the museum. We also went to the E-Village and I got to ride an electric scooter. Rugby starts next term so we had our first rugby training and it was so fun we got practice our tackles and my kicking because I play first 5. 

Go Crusaders

On Friday I went to Christchurch for five days with my with my aunty and uncle. We went to the Crusaders vs Highlanders the Crusaders won 38-14. 

The next day we went to Orana park we saw heaps of animals I liked the cheetah the most. We were going to feed the Giraffe but there was a really long line and we of had to walk around the whole park again

 On Sunday went to the gym and I meet Richie Mounga after that we went to a cafe then the rest of the day I just chilled. On the last day we went to town and got some presents for my brother and my mum then I got to watch the Crusaders train.


The Crusaders will play the Hurricanes in the semi final this weekend.

E Village

Last week we went to the E Village . Firstly we walked through the front door and then we learnt are E Motor bikes and Bikes. Secondly we learnt about different types of energy and how they work.Lastly we got to play with robots, Do this the where you have to pull a tube round a bit of wire without hitting it/ play with logging boats and my favorite the electric scooter.

Face vs Dirt

Just a normal morning skating with gavin.Then we thought that it would be a good idea to do a gap    ( For you that dont know a gap is two ramps and when you clear the gap you move them further apart). We cleared 80cm so we thought we should move it further 85cm that's where it all went WRONG. Push push push I thought I had enuf speed I was wrong. My back truck got stuck on the top of the ramp. As I said Face vs Dirt. P.S dirt won.😂😂
