the southlandian 2004 Not for school but for life we are learning Hip Hop For the first time in history, Boys’ High entered a hip hop team in the Southland/ Otago regional competition. After an intense audition, five boys were selected to represent our school. The team was made up of Kyle Tuliau, Daniel Neilson, Matea Bates, Karidene Neilson and Sonny Rangitoheriri. These boys practised solidly for three weeks, improving their dance skills and experimenting with different moves. The team choreographed their own routine and designed their logo which they screen printed on to tee shirts. On the day of the competition, the boys were focussed and danced brilliantly to Chingy’s beats. The (mainly female) audience nearly screamed the roof off Stadium Southland while the team was performing. The boys were professional, polished and original. They won their heat and went through to the regional final, where they gained second place and the right to enter in the national competition.
