Sneak peek...

This is a sneak peek of our new song, E te Ariki.

What do you think it is about?

E te Ariki

Today we learnt a new song with Penny and Troy. We sang the song beautifully. Here are the words below if you want to practice them or learn them too. 

E Te Ariki

E te Ariki

Whakarongo mai ra,

Kia matou.

E te Ariki,

Titiro ma ra kia matou.

Tenei matou o tamariki,

E whakapono ana matou

Ki a koe.

Aue, aue.

Te Matua, Te Tamaiti, Wairua Tapu e.

Te Matua, Te Tamaiti, Wairua Tapu e.

Te Matua, Te Tamaiti, Wairua Tapu e.

Performance for Whaea Penny and Whaea Troy

Meet Whaea Penny and Whaea Troy

Some of you may know them from Haka hiva. We sang them the songs we know and then they taught us a new song about colours. Since we listened so carefully we even got to sing some silly songs.

We have Kapa Haka today

Today we will welcome our new Kapa haka tutors.
Have you meet them before? 


What will we learn today?

Words for Utaina (Kapa Haka verse)

Utaina. Hi!

Utaina mai nga iwi o te motu

Ki runga Waikato e tau nei

Hiki-nuku e! Hiki-rangi e!

Ka hikitia I tana iwi

Ka hapainga I tana waka

Aue aue aue ha

Aue aue aue ha hi!
