E i a i e


We have been learning E i a i e.

Here are the words if you want to practice it too. 

E i a i e
E i a i e
Nga iwi e
Nga iwi e
Kia kotahi ra-a
Te - moana Nui-a ki-wa
E i a i e
E i a i e
Kia mau ra
 Kia mau ra
Ki te mana motuhake
Me te Āroha 


Karakia


Whakataka te hau ki te uru
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga
Kia mākinakina ki uta
Kia mātaratara ki tai
E hī ake ana te atakura
He tio, he huka, he hauhunga
Tihēi Mauri Ora!

19 March Practice

Children in our Kapa Haka group. 
We practice each Tuesday with Whaea Troy and Whaea Penny plays the guitar for us. 


What songs are we learning at the moment in Kapa Haka?
What is your favourite Kapa Haka song to sing?

Room 4 and 5 visiting Kauri Kapa Haka


We invited Room 4 and 5 to watch Kapa Haka. We were so impressed, they sang and copied our actions to some of our songs. 
We were a bit nervous to start with. Some of our siblings are in Room 4 and 5 so it was neat fun performing to them. 




What songs do you like singing at Kapa Haka?
