Mihi and Waiata

Room 4 talked about a mini and what it was.  We discussed that it is a Maori greeting, a formal welcome or a thank you.

Nitish read out his name, father's name, mother's name, the place he lives and his school.

You have a go

We discussed the word 'waiata'.  The children talked about it being a Maori song, something to enjoy singing.

Here are some songs that we enjoy singing together.

We even sang part of the National Anthem.
