Hurumanu for PE

This term in Hurumanu we have been learning about Ki o rahi. It is a traditional Māori game. The game involves two teams called, Kioma and Taniwha. The two teams are battling to hit the tupu in the middle circle of the field. You have to run around lots there are pou and comes layed out in circles. Ki o rahi is a game that you have to run with the ball and try to scores a goal.So when you run with the ball you have to try and touch the pou. In my team I had Meleana, Jayden, Tevita, Vin, Tonga, Hans, Matangi and Miguel but last but not less it is Matt. We are the hornets we love the name of the hornets because the queen bee can talk the swarm  of bee to follow her. It is really hard to play but one day you will try the māori Ki o rahi game.You can do tackle or you can touch them.
