Today I did the bonus activity for day 1 of the Summer Learning Journey. For this activity, we needed to watch a video of the Waka Ama race. We needed to say in our blog post whether we would like to do it, and why.
Here's my answer:
I would enjoy this type of race. It gets you outside, and includes a lot of strength. The reason on why I would love to do something like this is because I love Kayaking, and this race shares a lot of similarities to it.

Hi Julian,
ReplyDeleteRuby here from the Summer Learning Journey team!
You're right! Waka Ama racing would be very similar to kayaking. You would definitely need to be very strong to be in a Waka Ama race. There would be a lot of practice involved before the race. What sort of practice do you think the racers would have to do?
I wouldn't like to be in a Waka Ama race because I'm not very good at swimming and wouldn't want to fall in the water!
I look forward to reading more of your blogs.
Cheers,
Ruby.
Hello Julian
ReplyDeleteWell done on finishing this summer learning journey activity. I also would like to participate in a Waka Ama race. You're absolutely right - I think Waka Ama racing is a bit like kayaking. Keep up the good work Julian.
