Corbans Arts Trip

Aloha! bloggers 

Wednesday 13th we went on a school trip to the Corbans Art Estate. We were split into two groups - one making leis and one beating the drums. Everybody got a turn at the drums. There was two types of drums - skin drums and log drums the other group was learning how to make leis. Leis are flower bracelet leg bands, necklaces and head bands.  At the end we all came together and did a Hawaiian dance called the hula.

Now I learned where the Corbans Art centre in Henderson.  I also learned how to play the drums and the leis we made we got to keep. The people were called the Pacific Mamas. When we were drumming we had to follow a beat.
