Today Room 6 were raising money for a class camp and they decided to do a hangi for everyone who wanted to have it for dinner.
Room 3 went and watched for a while. They found out a lot of things, like:
* that it is good to use old railway tracks and dry rock to keep the heat for the food when you put it under the ground
* that it takes a long time to cook and if the rock is wet it could explode.
They said it was pretty hot if you got too close. The men that helped had to set up a hose like a sprinkler to cool off.
For the cooking to keep the steam and heat in for the food they had to put old sacks into water to keep the food moist. When the fire was done and burnt down they got a shovel and took the pieces of wood out.
Later on today some people are getting a meal at 3:00... YUMMY!!! ...

Liam - great reporting. I thought Mrs Rutene was writing it. I liked the bit about how hot it felt. Also I feel like I understand a bit more about how to cook a hangi. :]
