Snow day

The senior syndicate of Mapua School went to Rainbow Ski field on the 19 of August. As soon as we arrived we were rushed over to the rental shack to get equipped with our boots and skis', then we hit the slopes the beginner slope it was epic we twisted and turned but we managed to reach reach the bottom, Phew! We all had to have lessons to get a grip on the skis' afterward we had free reign. We started off at the Pomer (Intermediate Toe) We had to manage the toe to get the top some kids had epic fails on this toe such as Daniel Reid others like Nikau Webster and Hayden Squance strutting their stuff. The T- Bar also had its fair share of fails such as Jake Mclachlan falling off the toe but still regains his balance just to fall of again and get dragged by the belly up the toe until after much encouragement from Hayden and Mrs Stephens to let go. While Jordan on the other hand suffered going up and down owning himself in a pile on, on the way up but got a cool ride on the snowmobile. Overall it was a day of epic stuggle and big falls but we still think it was one of the best days of the year!
