Kī o Rahi - Hoon Hay School by Sport Canterbury

Kī-o-Rahi Passion Project 2019

Check out this cool video clip.......

Over winter when our Yr 5 and 6 winter sports teams were at Hagley playing sport, we had Greg Spence, from Origin Sport, at school taking a variety of  sporting options with children.

Greg taught them to play a traditional Māori game, Kī-o-Rahi.  

Flynn B, Tim D and Simon J  decided to use the knowledge  they had learnt and made it their passion project to teach other children how to play Kī-o-Rahi.  

Sport Canterbury heard how amazing our school was with promoting Kī-o-Rahi that they came along to school to video the boys.  The above video clip is now featuring on the Sport Canterbury website promoting the game.

 Ka pai Flynn, Tim and Simon - what great role models.
