Our new Kahui

On Monday my class moved into our new Kahui building, There are three Kahui buildings and every building is named after a native bird. The first building is called Mohua the second was called Riorio and the last one was called Tieke. My class is Tieke. All three buildings cost 27 million.

Walking into the building for the first time it surprised me it looked all weird I had no idea where I would be sitting in the moaring. It looked way different from what I had in mind, also it looked unfinished because of all the holes on the ceiling and on the tiered seating.

My first thoughts walking into the building were it was smaller then what I had in mind also why there were other little classes. I was thinking about how things were gonna run and where we were gonna hang our bags.

Walking in I was feeling excited, it felt like a whole new school
