On the 10th of August 2017, Maioro came in to talk to us about his disability and his life story.
Maioro had spina Bifida and what he went through.
In year 7 he was at peachgrove and his teacher told him to stay behind after class, his teacher then said to him if he was into sport, he said no but he will give it a try. He tried wheelchair rugby, he like it but he was versing older kids and he got smashed.
