I love the New Zealand Rugby Team's Haka – I think it is one of the most intimidating and intense rituals in any sport. This advert shows it in its purest form and could inspire some great poetry.

• Children could write the message they think the Haka is trying to portray.
• Use it to create vivid descriptions using similes and metaphors.
• Write about what qualities are needed to be a New Zealand player.
• Research the history of the Haka and write a non-chronological report about it.
• Learn the dance and write instructions, or even make up their own dance.
• Debate: Is there still a place for the Haka in today’s game? Children could discuss and write their findings.
