Kia ora everyone, last week on the 30th of October there was Ki-o-rahi tournament at Simpson Park. It was great. We traveled from Paihia School to Simpson Park in Morewa. I went with Whaea Becks in the school van with 9 other students. I was a little nervous because we didn’t have many practises. Our first game we lost 21 : 1 I think we lost because we were playing a year 7 and 8 team. I think we did good in our first game. The second game we played we won 10-1. I was very happy. The third game we lost but I can’t remember the score. Next time we need to spread out evenly around the feld. When we had breaks in between the games we went to go and watch the year 7 and 8’s. The year 7 and 8’s were amazing. Our team didn’t make it into the semi finals but the year 7 and 8 team did. The year 7 and 8 team lost the semi finals but they tried their best and did great. Have you ever played Ki-o-rahi?

Swim Safe
Last Week Tracy from swim safe came to Paihia School to explain to us about boat safety and swim safety. She told us about the important equipment to have on a boat. We learned that there are five rules that keep you safe on a boat, and five rules to keep you safe at the beach. Next time when my family goes out on a boat I am going to remind them to where their life jacket.
Rugby World Cup
In the past week we have been learning about the rugby world cup. First we had to find out which 20 countries are competing. Then we needed to find out what each country's rugby team nickname is. Afterwards we had to find out what their emblem was and find a picture of it. My favourite nickname is the “Brave Blossoms” from Japan. What is yours?
