Celebrating Maori Language week

Tena Koutou to all!!



Celebrating Maori Language week 
We started term 3 with the celebration of Maori Language week. We made Poi's and did a poi dance. We learnt about the Maori culture and the significance of picking up the green leaf when welcoming new visitors. We also learnt about the Koru pattern and its significance in Maori Culture. 
We learnt about Hongi and Hangi. We celebrated the Maori Language week by doing various activities by going to other classes. It was great fun.
