Steamers @ Tauriko

What a wonderful opportunity we all had to meet the Steamers at school last week. It was lots of fun and we all learnt how to use our WITS. Read about the game below from a couple of our Year 5 reporters.



24-20 to the steamers!!
From the classes we surveyed that 42 students from the school attended the game and therefore 42 parents went to watch the game on Sunday. The game was at Baypark. 39 students and parents used the free tickets that the Steamers gave us.

There were 6 forms of entertainment at the start of the game. These included: jump jam, dancing and ripper rugby.

At the start of the game one man got hit in the head with a rugby ball and some people tried to start the Mexican wave but sadly it didn’t succeed. At halftime the score was 10-6 to the Hawkes Bay Magpies.

At half time there was an Australian guy who tried coming in without a ticket and there were 7 security guards trying to get him down. There was an tyre race where 2 families had to wheel tyres down the pitch with a big elastic around them. Campbell from Room 11 from our school was in the winning team.

The second half was more intense because the Steamers were more turned on and the Magpies were harder. Half of the second half the Steamers were getting hurt so much but they still had a good run, a lot of fun and played by the rules!! At the end the Steamers won even though Hawkes Bay was in front in the first half.
