Circus+Challenge

__The Circus Challenge !__ **﻿ ** On Tuesday 17 May the Circus Challenge came to Waiau Pa School. We all had a fantastic time with Phil and Richie. We tried out spinning plates, spin sticks, juggling silk cloths and making human pyramids. Some lucky children got to be part of the 'You Be the Star' show at the end of the day. Even Mr Williams got to be part of it! Have a look below at the children having fun learning new skills and read about what happened.

On Tuesday 17th May the Circus Challenge workshop came to school. They taught us to do cool tricks like spinning a plate and spinning sticks. Their names were Phil and Richie. Phil and Richie are from Australia. My favourite bit was when we did spin sticks. Spin sticks are when you have these two sticks - 1 is grippy and 2 are not. Juggling cloths is when you have to juggle some cloths. Spinning plates is when you spin a plate on a pointy stick. A cool bit was the show when Phil and Richie showed us some things that they did. Christen and Antonio were in the show aswell. I and the whole Karaka syndicate had a good time. Written by Logan

The tricks they did were: spinning plates, spin sticks, juggling and pyramids. After all that we did a show. Somw people were from Room 6, including Antonio and Christen. The show event was on for about 30 minutes and us learning was about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Written by Cameron A.
