Kapa Haka over the school holidays

Kia Ora Tatou!

Just trying to keep everyone in the loop, and just to let you all know that this is only a temporary site for all MCS kapa haka students to check out current homework and up and coming events.

We had our first practice yesterday (Monday 26th Sept) and had 9 students attend. It was awesome to have gotten through our 2nd haka with the boys and the girls went through the Te Rina waiata.

I hope to have more students attend tomorrow and Friday this week then again on the second week of holidays Mon, Weds and Fri again. I will post up youtube videos for homework, words for chants, waiata's and haka's etc.

Any questions you can contact me on 0211646606 or email: z.dahya@gmail.com

Mauri Ora (health and wellness to you)
