Phil Morrison Visits Hoon Hay

This term on Friday Phil Morrison (4th best footbag person in the world) visited Hoon Hay school. All the Legend classes got to wittiness his performance. He told us how to do footbag and did a few of his tricks. Lachlan and Eva got to try out the "toe trick" and the "inside" kick.

Here are some photos of them in action!

Here is some videos and photos of Phil in action.

                                                                 

If you would like to try out footbag there are some proper hackey sacks at the Hoon Hay office.

Bye see you next time. :)

RAD RHYTHM

RAD RHYTHM 

On Monday the Year 3, 4, 5, and 6s got to witness a incredible show from Jonny (One of the Rad Rhythm teachers). 

He is from Wellington and flew all the way down to Christchurch to see us. In the morning he went to rooms 19, 20 and 21 to have their 40 minute session. Then at 11:30 all the classes from years 3-6 went into the hall to watch a performance. Jonny talked to us about how one of his teachers gave him a pair of drum sticks and taught him how to drum. He then thought of making a career where he could teach kids how to play instruments. Jonny also told us three very important things that we should remember, they are dream big, work hard and help others. 

In the afternoon Room 18 got to have their 40 minute turn with Jonny. We all split up into 5 groups and were given different things to make music with. My group had bamboo sticks and plastic cups. The challenge was that we had to make our own musical item. Our team and another team were the winners! (Yay) 
Here is a video of us.
