Introduction

Te Roopuu Kapa Haka o Te Puuawai.

Kia Ora whanau!

We have created this blog to update our Kapa Haka members about our up and coming Fiafia Night performance next week.

We will be uploading waiata (song) lyrics, links to the audio of these waiata, as well as practices performed during school hours, by our students involved.

With less than two weeks to prepare for this performance, our students and teachers have worked very hard to support our members as they prepare themselves.

Poi and costumes have been made, therefore it is crucial that you support  and encourage your child to practice at home.

Although the poi are for practice purposes, we have been teaching our students that it is to be used for Kapa Haka ONLY. They have been spoken to about how to use them properly, and a brief history of how the poi has changed overtime has been discussed.

During this week, we will be informing you of their progress, and panui will also be uploaded for your information.
