Matariki Performance THANKS!

Kia ora Koutou
I would like say thanks to all the parent help and support for our tamariki in Te Rakau Whakapapa last Friday. Helping students get changed and keeping them calm was awesome. Most importantly, your being there made the event special for them.
Our tamariki have worked so hard and don't get a chance to see themselves perform in all their glory. I wasn't able to take photos or videos of their performance, and would really appreciate any footage you are able to share if you have something.
Files can be shared by emailing Damian / Mr H, or sending a memory card to school. Videos and photos will be shown to the kapa group, and also shared on Birchwood's Maori@Birchwood blog (with your permission) (http://birchwoodschoolmaori.blogspot.co.nz/).
Do let me know if you have any queries.

Ka kite ano,

We have excitement this term with a MATARIKI celebration being planned. 

Clicking here will take you to a googleslide thing so you can learn more about Matariki. 

We are going to sing 'He Waiata Matariki' at assembly this week. Here is a googledocthing of the video and kupu so you can learn in class or at home.
