Tikanga Wakari do themselves proud at Polyfest 2017!

Heather Bonney —

On Tuesday our Kapa Haka group, Tikanga Wakari, did a fabulous job at Otago Māori and Pacific Islands Festival (Polyfest)! 

This year we have had a record breaking number of children join our Kapa Haka group (203 children!) but due to illness for some, and family holidays for others, it was 195 children who took the stage to represent our school on Tuesday.  It has been just wonderful to see such enthusiasm about our Māori and Pasifika performing arts. The students did themselves and their school proud with how they conducted themselves backstage at the festival, and their performance on stage. Ka wani kē! 

If you would like to see the children perform, click on the link below. The camera does a great job of panning around all the performers - we hope you enjoy it!
