Senior Kites

A lucky few seniors got to make special Maori kites with Rikki. Our design was based around a triangle 1 metre and a half upwards and 1 meter wide. Working in groups, It took us about 3 hours to make one. Why did we decide to do it? Because our topic is kites. Rooms 1, 7, 8 and 9 were each allowed to send two people to join in and room 2 was allowed 3 people. The people in room 2 had the extra job of taking photos and helping Rikki. Rikki showed us how to put the string around and up, to securely tie the kite together. He told the boys to go and make their own kite, But they spent too much time shouting out loud because they couldn’t decide who was in charge. They haven’t finished theirs yet.
