Kiwisport Reflection

Kiwi Sport
WALT: Reflect on what we did during Kiwisport.
Today at Kiwisport we played dodgeball for our warm up. It wasn't very fun in the beginning because when you got out you had to move into the other team but then coach Allan said that we will start doing illumination. It was fun but I got out of the game in 2 minutes so I just stood there with my two friends Sene and Matthew. We were just watching to see if anyone was cheating. We caught a few people cheating but they just carried on playing the game. 

After warm up we moved on to our activity which was shotput but before we used the shot put ball we had to practice with a size 3 Soccer ball. After a few minutes we moved onto the actual ball but some of us had to partner with someone else because there wasn't enough balls to go around. We had a couple throws and then our coach called us in because it was time for the next class to come for their session. What I enjoyed was playing with the shot put ball because I was one of the farrest throwers in my class. What I didn't enjoy was dodgeball because we used soft balls for it and it kept curving when we throw the ball.

Newt week we are going to do long jump and standing jump. Standing jump is different to long jump. In standing jump you have to stand and jump forward you are not allowed to run and then jump and the length of how far jump is from your ankles not from your toes. In long jump you have to run and try jump your farrest. What I found challenging was trying to run because my legs are tired from friday because we had our athletics. What I didn't find challenging was throwing the shotput because it wasn't really heavy.

Tapa Cloth

WALT: Reflect on what we drew for our trip to Te Tuhi.
This drawing was made by me for our trip to Te Tuhi. The first box represents my culture which is Tonga, the second box was to represent my favourite place which is church, the third box represents my family which is my parents, me and my four brothers, the last box represents my interest which is rugby union. What I enjoyed was drawing it because we haven't done any art at school for a while I don't even remember the last time we done art. The reason we did this was because we had to draw symbols that represents us and because we are going to the art gallery to learn more about the stories of the pacific. I can't wait to go see the other tapa cloths at the art gallery. What I found challenging was the flag because I added to much detail to it. What I didn't find challenging was my family because I just did stick figures.

On Monday night on the 30th of October 2017 the Tongan Rugby league team landed i Auckland city New Zealand. People said that the airport of Auckland was like a red and white sea filled with Tongans coming to welcome the team to New Zealand. Tuimoala says that he feels more pride playing for Tonga then playing for Kiwis and he also said seeing all the fans come to the airport and show their support for the team means a lot to him. The Tonga team launched the tournament campaign on Sunday night, beating Scotland 50 - 4. Tonga's next game will be against Samoa in Hamilton on Sunday. The Tongan team also includes former Kiwi stars Manu Vatuvei, David Fusitua, Sika Manu and Jason Taumalolo. Jason Taumalolo switched allegiances two days before the teams were announced.

The Tongan team will be facing Kiwis in November also in Hamilton.
