Kapa Haka

Mana, power and pride would be a few words to describe the feeling as the Good Shepherd School Kapa Haka group took the stage. During the weekend a large group of year 5 and 6 students took to the stage to perform at the Eden Albert Cultural Festival. There were a few nerves before we started but once we were underway the excitement of performing kicked in. We felt proud as a team to perform for so many people. Kia Kaha! The highlight of Kapa Haka for me was the haka.

Whakatuki

In Maori we have been learning about a Whakataui
A Whakatauki is a proverb, what is truly valued in the Maori Culture.

The Whakatauki that we have been learning about is if we all shared then no one would go without. 


We would be able to provide for all that come to us.


There are also Proverbs in the Bible that encourage us to share.
Read these proverbs : Proverbs 19:17; 22:9; 31:20.


Jesus also showed us the teachings of God when he feed the multitudes of people with the fish and the loaves. Read more about this in the Gospel of John: 6 or the Gospel of Matthew: 14.

Maori Verbs



In room 6 we have been learning verbs in Maori (action words.)
The question is "Kei te aha ia?"which means what is S/he doing.
Ia is the pronoun for both he and she.

We have matched verbs up,filled in cross words and played Simon Says

My Pepeha


During this term Room 6 has been learning how to write a Pepeha. A Pepeha is a Maori introduction that establishes your identity and heritage. We learned how to say our Pepeha and then we said it in front of the class and then we used screencastify to video it.This is my Pepeha.
