On Wednesday 13 of November term 4 week 5 the middle school went to the Corbans Estate Trip. We went there because we wanted to learn about the Pacific.  The Pacific Mamas took the workshops. There were two workshops - the two workshops were the drumming and the other one was making leis for a special person. 
First thing our group did was the drumming. They had to choose 10 each people at a time to go with an adult. The adults had  two each kids to help with the drumming. After that it was my turn to do the drumming and I played the drum 3 times. I enjoyed drumming with the Mr Riceman.                                         

We had to do a competition against the girls, we had to sing a song three times but we sing the song 4 times. After that it was the girls turn to sing the song our teacher Mrs Law was the judge. the girls sing the song 3 times. Mrs Law said that the girls won. The girls were so happy that they won!
After the drumming we went to the next workshop that was making a lei for the special person. So the repeating pattern was straw and then flower. We had to close our eyes because we had to think about a special person. I was thinking, then I got an idea I was making the lei for my mum. 

After making the lei I tied my lei. Mrs law took a picture of me wearing the lei. After that I tidied my space we had to sit on the mat. So we went to the hall we had to do a dance. So the boys were sititng, the it was the girls turn to dance then it was our turn to dance. We did a really good dance after dancing we had to sit it was time to go back to school because the bus was here. We got to school at 1:00.
