Kia koutou katoa,

Nau mai hoki ki te Tau Hou!  E ua oaoa roa mātou. To mātou he kaiwhakaako hou mo te tuakana Kapa Haka roopu!  Ko Kiri Mohi tāna ingoa. Nō Rotorua ia engari i whanau mai i Ōtautahi.

Welcome back to the New Year! We are very excited. We have a new tutor! Her name is Kiri Mohi. She is originally from Rotorua but born in Christchurch.

Vocal rehearsal for the Senior Kapa Haka group is at lunchtime every Monday in the Hall from 12:45 - 1:20 with Ms Neill.

Junior Kapa Haka rehearse every Wednesday after whole school assembly and singing with Ms Neill.

The words for all the songs can be found on this blog.  Please ensure you take the time to learn the words so you are prepared for your sessions on Mondays and Thursdays.

Tēnei Taku Poi - Poi Actions

He Karakia Mō Ngā Kai

He Karakia Mō Ngā Kai

E te Atua
Whakapainga ēnei kai
Hei oranga mō ō matou tinana
Whangaia hoki ō matou wairua 
ki te taro o te ora
Ko Ihu Karaiti hoki to matou Ariki
 
Amine

Lord
Bless this food
To strengthen our bodies
To replenish our spirits
And revitalise
In the name of Christ our Lord

Amen

 

Poi Hou Mō Tēnei Tāku Poi

Here are a couple of videos filmed today whilst you were introduced to the poi.  Grab a poi and practice with Matua Jah and Whaea Mahia:

He Waiata Hou!!!!

Tēnei Tāku Poi

Tēnei tāku poi porotiti titaha

Ka kawea purakau ki ngā iwi o te motu

Whakarongo ki te patu

Ki te kupu kōrero o tāku manu poi e

Nō Hine-titama, no Hine-ahu-one

Nō Rānginui me Pāpā e

Nō Hemo-te-rangi, nō Tahu Pōtiki

Tāku manu kōrero

Ka whakaeke marae, whakaeke paepae

Taku manu kōrero

Tēnei taku manu tukutuku

Tēnei taku manu poi e

Tēnei taku poi porotiti titaha

Ka kawea purakau ki ngā iwi o te motu

Whakarongo ki te patu

Ki te kupu kōrero o taku manu poi e

Nō Hine-titama, nō Hine-ahu-one

Nō Ranginui me Pāpā e

Nō Hemo-te-rangi, nō Tahu Pōtiki

Tāku manu kōrero

Ka whakaeke marae, whakaeke paepae

Tāku manu kōrero

Tēnei tāku manu tukutuku

Tēnei tāku manu poi e 


Thank you to Matua Jahmaine and Whāea Mahia for this video
