Kapa Haka 2015

Kia ora katoa and welcome to Kapa Haka 2015,

The first term of this year has been a bit messy with me being away with knee injuries and also school camp. However, the programme is now up and running and going full steam ahead. The 3 waiata that we have been learning are now up on the blog and available for everyone to have a look at. It is my intention that we will perform one of the songs during the last full school assembly of this term.

Please remember to return your notice committing yourself  to kapa haka for the year. It is important that Matua Maka and myself know who will be around so we can plan how to perform the waiata.

2015 Waiata-a-ringa – Kakitea

Kakitea Toru, Wha
Kakitea ki te tonga
Ko taku Raukura he iti Kahurangi e
Papaki kau ana ki runga te Maunga
Aoraki e koro e

Tu ana ki te rangi heke ana ki te papa
Ko taku turanga e
