Fun At Te Poho-o-Rawiri Marae
Last week on Thursday and Friday Nui Syndicate went to Te Poho-o-Rawiri Marae. There was a powhiri to welcome us. The Tangata Whenua-Papa Albie, Aunty Buba and Aunty Charlotte-welcomed us onto the Marae. They taught us their Pepeha:
Ko Titirangi te maunga
Ko Turanganui te awa
Ko Horouta te waka
Ko Te Poho-o-Rawiri te marae
Ko Ngati Oneone te iwi
After the Powhiri we went out and had morning tea then went into our rotation activities. The first thing that my group did was learn moari patterns such as the koru and mania. Then we moved onto Honga with Koka Ngaire.
In the Honga you have a small cabbage tree trunk and you get a buddy then put it against each others forheads and you do all sorts of challenges with it. But then our group had to walk up kaiti hill....
It was quite tireing walking up but we made it. We had a small lunch brake after the kaiti hill walk then had a play. Then we had vegetarian nachos for dinner and they were Tu Meke!! Next we had to get our beds set up and then have some chill time.
A kapa haka presentation was what was next for the adults and
parents of what we had learnt so far:
In the morning we had to run up and down the court because people were wakeing up early and talking. We had a play after that and then had breakfast. After breakfast we packed up the wharenui to welcome the wai syndicate. While we were waiting Aunty Buba talk us a song called Muma Panda, it's about how the Nanis make the bread in the morning and at night for breakfast and dinner. We sang Haere Mai A Paoa when we welcomed wai. We went through all the rotations again and had another play. Overall it was really fun and I am SO happy we went!!
