Beat Boxing Duffy Hero

We were so lucky to have Tipene Harmer visit us on Monday as the Duffy Hero. He is a rapper who has the song "Westside Hori"- you may have heard it!

He told the kids how he wasn't very good at reading and writing and used to get embarassed when reading in front of the class.
 He feel in love with music at school and told his dad at the age of 9 that he wanted to be a rapper. His Dad told him he would need to become better with his writing and reading.
So Tipene put hard work into his reading and writing so that he could produce awesome raps that rhymed.

Tipene made the kids beatbox their own beat. He selected 4 kids. One was the kick drum who made a bass sound with their voice, one was the high hat who made a "tssssss" sound with their voice, another was the snare who made a "chhhh" sound, and the last was using their voice!

Below is a video capturing what they did!
