Kia Ora Weka Class,
What an exciting week we have had!
I have really enjoyed learning aspects of Maori Language with you.
My highlight has been learning and taking part in the hangi process.
Digging the pit, heading to school at 6:00am to light the crates, moving the hot irons, packing the food parcels into the basket, lining the basket with cabbage leaves, sealing the basket with soaked sheets and sacks and then finally lowering the kai into the pit (and trying not to fall in!)
Enjoying the kai at the end was also great.
- I would like you to share your highlights from Maori Language week by posting your comments below.
- I also would like to hear some ideas from you about how we can continue to grow our experiences from Maori Language week. What could we start doing or continue doing in class? I am really keen to improve our Te Reo speaking and look forward to hearing from you.
Mr Douglas.
