On Tuesday 10CH from Grey High School, walked to our school. They were a
group of year ten students that came to teach us a cultural game called Te Uru.
I had never played Te Uru before but it was fun.

The rules were, you had to catch the ball with a flat palm, and basically netball
rules like no stepping with the ball and no knocking the ball out of other people's
hands. We did drills to practise catching the ball in our flat palm and also practised
intercepting the ball. I found it hard at first to catch the ball with a flat palm but then
I got use to it.

I would suggest for next time that there were more teams so that there was more space
on the field, also that there were two refs and at least one would be watching the game.
