“An overcast day doesn’t mean no fun!” Early in Term 3, the middle school of Onerahi Primary had an Olympics Day. Each of the 5 classes represented a country. They were Samoa, Australia, Kenya, America and New Zealand. We had to dress up in the countries clothes. I dressed up as an African hunter. Te Ao said to me “You look like an African chief Isaac”. The day started with the lighting of the torch, then a parade. Someone from each class carried the flag of the country they represented. Kenya performed an African dance, Samoa performed the sasa and the boys from New Zealand did the haka. We played team games including tunnel ball, over and under, running relays and water carrying relays. The country that won the most games received the gold medal at the end. Kenya won gold, America won silver, and New Zealand won bronze. Even though it was another overcast day we had an awesome time competing against each other in a fun way. By Isaac
