Rāpaki Marae

Our syndicate have been visiting the Rāpaki Marae to find out some of the stories from Matua Isaac that explain  the geographical areas in Lyttelton Harbour and surrounding areas. Here are some photos of the beautiful marae.

Gaga Pit Rules

                                

  Gaga Pit Rules



To start, one person throws the ball in the air.

If you are hit below the waist, you are out.
If you hit the ball twice in a row, you are out. ( i.e. 'double hit')
The ball is to be hit with one hand only at a time.
If you  hit the ball out of the pit on the full, you are out.

The ball cannot be:  
  • Scooped up or picked up
  • Thrown
  • Hit Volleyball style from overhead
  • Kicked

No burying feet in the sand or throwing sand.

If you are out, climb all the way out of the pit.
When there are only 3 players remaining, start a 1 minute countdown.

Try to avoid 'wall camping' (i.e. running along the wall avoiding play).
If you arrive halfway through the game, you must wait until a new game starts.

If you are eliminated, leave the pit graciously.
BE AN HONEST, GOOD SPORT!
