Fiafia night

On Wednesday the 9th of April 2014 we had something very exciting going on it was fiafia time. At 6 in the evening everyone was getting ready for fiafia. They got into their costumes.

As my group was getting ready we were waiting in the library singing one of our group songs. It was really dark I could barely see anyone. Everyone looked like shadows including the adults.

At 7 everyone was going outside waiting for it to start. Kapahaka was waiting next to the stage and I was in the kapahaka group. Finally it started Mr Burt was talking for a little bit then we came on stage.  

While the kapahaka group was walking on the stage we got into our lines. Then we started to do our kapahaka songs and our moves the first song was called Nga Waka E Whitu. After that song we sang another kapahaka song called E Tainui E after that song we did another one called Kiko that song was including the poi.

After that song we did our last song called mihi mai ra. After that song everyone was cheering and clapping for us then a few adults were doing the haka. After that we walked of the stage and got changed to go to our next  groups.

After I got changed I went to my next group. Then when it was time for my group we were waiting next to the stage. Then it was our turn we walked on the stage and then we started dancing. We finished our dance then we went of the stage. That was the end of my 2 groups.

Weekly quiz about wetas

The thing I want to write about in my quiz is the weekly quiz visual question 1 about the weta I want to write about the weta because we get them falling from every light in our house.

Because we live near a forest and those wetas on the picture are probably called tree wetas they are up to 40 mm long and they live in trees and underground. The males has much larger jaws then the females.The wetas including the females will hiss and bite when threatened. Some people keep them as pets. They live in New Zealand.

You know which one is the female when they are long and heavy. Every weta can't even jump because it's too heavy, they only jump a little when they are scared. Wetas are humongous.

1 fell through my bedroom light. I was sleeping then all of a sudden I heard something fall. I quickly got up and turned on the lights then when I was looking for it, that weta was on me it was a female one I was screaming.
