There's a new craze sweeping the internet – the Mannequin Challenge.

The revolutionary phenomenon involves groups of humans standing still – as still as mannequins in fact – while someone films them in their statuesque poses.

It's been popular internationally, with luminaries such as one-time presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and rock star Jon Bon Jovi taking the challenge on together.

Even New Zealand's All Blacks have jumped on the bandwagon, posting a video of themselves standing motionless in Rome.

Now, Tauranga Intermediate has attempted the tricky viral challenge.

Tauranga Intermediate communications manager Karen Mills says there are about 120 kids involved in the video.

'One of our classes did it earlier in the day and then we decided to do it with all of Rimu House.

'The video is the second take. In the first one there were a few kids moving in the background and when we watched it back they demanded we do another one.

'After that, I decided we had work to do,” she laughs.
