Kiwi Sport / Ki O Rahi

This week at Kiwi Sport we were playing Ki O Rahi. It was our last time learning how to play Ki O Rahi. Next week we are going to play the game. In this session we were spilt into 2 teams. One team would run and team would touch the poles, the other team would wait for someone in the other team to drop the ball on the ground. We wore rippa tags so that it would make it fair for the other team to rip it off that persons ripper that has the ball. Whoever ripper that gets ripped that has the ball has to pass it to the other person in there team.

Today was our second session of Ki O Rahi. In the start we were practising our kicking, we were aiming to kick towards the tupo. Afterwards we started to play some Golden Child. We were split into 2 teams one team ran and the other team got a chance to throw the ball to the tupo. There were 2 guardians marking the tupo. The team that hits the tupo calls out Motu, and the person that is running has to stop were they are. The only way for the person to go back where they were in the start has to wait for the Golden child to run and touch the poles. If the other team doesn't call out Motu the other team wins that round.

Today was our second session of Ki O Rahi. We played on the field. We had a warm up. Miss Shanice showed us where to go when she calls out the names. For our last game we played Golden Child. It was kind of different to the Golden Child on the court instead it was played on the field. There were 7 poles on the field. The person that is running has to touch the poles with the ball in their hand, which that was group 1. Group 2 was my group. We had to throw the ball at this object in the middle. If we hit it we have to say Mout. The person that was running has to stop near the nearest pole. After our first round we changed up the rules. It got a bit hard for my team because 2 people from group 1 had to defend the object in the middle. Once we switched sides it was our turn to defend it while the other people in that group had to run. The golden child was the fastest person  in that group was the last runner. Whoever stopped at a pole, ran behind the golden child. 

Ki O Rahi/ Kiwi Sport

Today we played our first Kiwi Sport. Our new Kiwi Sport game was called Ki O Rahi. Before we played some games we watched a video of Ki O Rahi. This game started of in the olden days. The story behind this helped stop violence between New Zealanders and once the game was done it made peace between the New Zealanders. We played 2 games. The first game we played was called Tanwha and Te Ara.
