Recount: Kapa Haka ( Quite a small one)

 Inside the classroom was chaos. Children were flooding in the room, trying to get their mokos and their gold and yellow feathers on. As I entered, my friends pulled me into the changing rooms in the hall, shoving my Kapa Haka uniform on. 

We ran to get my moko and feather, and sat down on the mat, folding our arms and sitting awkwardly. The class lined up and walked into the hall, we stood quietly in our spots waiting for the Kaia to call us on. The guitar strummed beautifully, hardly missing a note, and we began to sing. 

We sang about 6 or 7 songs until we sat down for a few quick photos. All the year 6's took separate photos for the year 6 dinner, I'm a year 6 if you're wondering! Then we walked back into the classroom for 'Circle Time'.
