Kapa Haka Cultural Festival

Date: June 6 Seven days ago, the Paihia School Kapa Haka Roopu had finally performed at the Kawakawa Cultural Festival, We had a great time. Over the past 2 weeks we were practising very hard to pull off our performance. I can't wait till next time because next time I think the Kapa Haka Roopu could improve a bit more on a few things like completing a full bracket and sharpening our moves with the rakau. Our tutors are to going to teach us boys (in the roopu) how to harmonize while the  girls are singing. We all had an awesome time together as a roopu. Blog you later 
 Here are some photos from seven days ago.

Kapa Haka

Kia Ora Bloggers, for the past few weeks our Paihia School Kapa Haka Roopu have been practicing for the Kawakawa Cultural Festival. 

Our Roopu have been learning a new bracket and we also have been learning to use the rakau in the Haka and our Entrie. 

We have to practice being on time, make sure our volume is good, stay on key and most important of all is to focus and stay disciplined. We practice mainly every lunchtime, as part of our warm up we have been learning how to warm up our vocal cords. Sometimes we sing with the guitar and without. 


I enjoy doing kapa haka with my friends and I like the discipline because when we don’t listen to Matua Pep aka my dad he will make us either do press ups or go for a run then when we finish every body is tired and does want to listen to Matua Pep My Dad is a very good kapa haka teacher and I also like that he is may dad.

Sea Cleaners


On tuesday the Sea Cleaners came to our School and they told us to pick up rubbish. They said that they have been picking up a lot of rubbish that they find and they have a boat and when they see the  rubbish in the sea water they pick it up with there net. They are saving the sea and the animals because they have to clean up other people's rubbish when they should clean up there own. They are nice sea cleaners I like people who clean other people's mess and if you see rubbish don’t walk past it… PICK IT UP.

Magic Show

On Wednesday A Magician came to Paihia School we were learning about to eat healthy but for some reason we had to pay for the magic show but it was worth it what I enjoyed at the magic show was when he dupacated money. Dump thing was the it wasn’t NZ money and … he was talking about what to eat and not to eat.
