Illminster Visit

 So because I'm a year six that means I'm going to a new school next year. There is 3 options for schools, there is Illminster, Gizint and Campion. I'm probably going to Illminster or Gizint. The other day we had a visit to Illminster we basically just went there for a day and saw what they do. So I arrive at our school and the Gizint and Campion people had already left. At 9:30 we got on a bus and we were going to Illminster.

When we arrived we got into this big hall sort of thing we waited round and they told us " I'm the principal here are our values" and what not. I did challenge which is a fitness thing there was also Xcel, scitech, bilingual and stuff but challenge seemed the most fun. We didn't do learning and maths we just did challenge all day. 

After morning tea we went back into the gym and got split into two groups, the group I was in was we did this game where you had to be the first to grab a cone. It is sort of like musical chairs except the referee says something like head, knees, shoulders, cone and the first person to grab the cone wins and the loser has to do a burpee. We did four rounds of that and the we did this excercise thing it was twelve situps, eight box jumps, four burpees and then a run to this green fence. We did another four rounds of that which is fourty six situps, thirty six box jumps and sixteen burpees.

At Lunch we could get in the pool but we didn't I couldn't be bothered. I just played basketball for a bit and the bell rung. We did this random meditation stuff afterwards and we had to lie on the gross unmopped floor and have our hands on our stomach. We then played this game where there are ten taggers and everyone else runs around, and if you get tagged you have to go in a push-up position until someone crawls under you. Then we left and went back to wainui also I would rate that visit a solid 6/10.

Kapa Haka 2020

Yesterday on November 18th 2020 we had Moana Syndicate Kapa Haka. We did the peformance at the show grounds in Gisborne. As soon as I arrived at school, I went into class to put my bag up and I see lines of people, they were lining up to get their moko on. So a moko is a traditional Maori piece of face art. Anyway after twenty minutes or so I got to the front of the line, the cold piece of ink pushed against my face, then I went to the other seat looked straight ahead and the ink pressed against my face like a pillow when I'm tired. After that we played around outside for a bit and then the bell rung. We headed to the hall to get our outfits on. After that We got on the bus to get going.

We did a bit of practicing and then we went on stage. We got behind some curtains and had to wait three minutes before we could go on the stage, with my heart pounding we stood up and walked up the stairs onto the stage. Everyone was clapping, I wasn't too nervous because I was with 100 other people. We sang the first song which was E Te Ariki, then we sang Utaina. Then the Utaina Haka whic is the point where the boys move up to do the haka. We did the haka and it hurt like I slapped my chest and arms harder then I ever have. Then we sung Rona three times and wainui e and done.

We left the stage and people loved our peformance even I'd say we were better then any of the other schools, like I'm not joking the peformance after ours was a bunch of kindergarteners. On the way back to school I had my eardrums burst with the noise of the songs. Then we got back to school and I was tired.
