Whakawhiti - Paki Pakia

Te Rangatahi have just learned a new haka for wahine called Whakawhiti. Here you see Whakawhiti being performed then followed by Paki Pakia - the boys haka.

Could all Te Rangatahi members please watch the above clip and learn the kupu (words) and actions. Have a relaxing and safe holiday. See you next term!

Te Reo class

On Monday we will be continuing with te reo class

We will need to go through these things:

How we work when we are at te reo class -
Revise what we did last time - classroom commands
Build on new learning - Pepeha posters

Classroom commands:
turituri - be quiet
kia tere - be quick
titiro mai - look this way
huri mai - turn this way
inaianei tonu, right now
kaua wareware - don't forget

This week we are learning and using these commands:
whakarongo mai - listen
kia tau - settle down
ka taea koe - you can do it
ka tika - that's correct

We will also start making pepeha posters which will include:
Tauparapara - you can chose and I'll show you one I use
Mihimihi - we can find basic ways to mihi
Pepeha - how you introduce yourself

Those of you who are a bit more advanced can find and use more extensive tauparapara, mihi and pepeha. Think of what else you can add rather than just the basics. I also would expect you to be able to write and say this to a group.
