Kia ora Koutou,
Next week is TE WIKI O TE REO MĀORI. It's a big deal this year because it's 50 years since a petition was sent to Parliament to acknowledge te Reo Māori in Aotearoa / New Zealand.
You can click here to read how Birchwood school will celebrate this year.
As part of this, we're checking in with the school waiata we all know, need to know, and know we need to know.
Here's a list of "must know":
Ko Toku Marae
Utaina
Tutira Mai
Te Aroha
These ones we "need to know":
E Hoki mai ra (ka pioioi)
E I A I E
Whakarongo ake au
Toi-a mai te waka nei
These are older but we know these too:
He Honore
He Kakano Ahau
Haere Mai
Here are some we're working on:
E Minaka Ana
Ko Te Waipounamu
We'll update this list over the next few weeks, and make sure there's a slideshow for you (might be easier than using this blog).
Let me know if you have any questions, or ideas for waiata we could learn.
Ngā mihi,
Damian
