3 Activity: Waka Ama
To this day, the people of New Zealand still use waka. Instead of using their waka to transport them from one place to another, they sometimes use waka in special events and in sporting competitions such as Waka Ama. Both boys and girls compete in Waka Ama boat races.
Watch this short video of a Waka Ama race. On your blog tell us whether you would like to be in a Waka Ama race one day. Why or why not?
Hi there!
ReplyDeleteIt...Sonny!
looks like your going hard the summer learning journey program.
How much points do you have?
Kia Ora Siyona,
ReplyDeleteI think you're right about Waka Ama races being tiring! I would still try it one day because it looks like fun being out on the water and I like sports where you work as part of a team. My favourite sport is netball, and I usually play Goal Attack. What is is your favourite sport?
What do you think would be the hardest part about being in a Waka Ama race? I think it would be making sure that you are rowing at the same speed and in-sync with your teammates; that would take a lot of practice!
