Have you ever played Ki o Rahi?

Ki O Rahi


The day was warm and the clouds were as fluffy as cotton candy. Room 4 students set
off on their journey, desperate to take out the Ki O Rahi tournament. We trained for
weeks through tough and hard to get that far. I was so excited for that day in front of me.


We eventually made it to the fields located in Kaikohe. I couldn't see any teams playing
and we carried on. We went to the central of Kaikohe to Four Square, Charlee’s dad
made his way out of the van and into the Four Square. A few long moments later
Charlee’s dad made his way back to the van and gave us a packet of sweets each.
He encouraged us to work hard if we wanted to have the packets of sweets. So we did.


When we eventually made it back to the fields we finally saw some teams there.
We parked up, unravelled the seat belts, and made our way out of the van to the rest of the classroom. Students and teachers were helping eachother set the tent up and the rest
were gathered around the damaged tree and against the rusted fence, waiting for the first
team to play against.


We countlessly counted the time until we could play against another school, until
finally we found the school we were competing against. The team we were playing
with first was Omanaia. We had many Technics and skills that we had learnt over the
passed weeks and we wanted to show those techniques that day. We competed against
many different schools and had much fun against them. We also got a high score of
54 - 16 to us, I was so hyped about that score, I literally wanted to puke.

Any ways to top this story off I really had an extraordinary day that day. I was so
blessed that I got the honour to play that day.
