TE AHUREA  KAPA HAKA O TE TONGA O HOKIANGA 2018 


Ko te kapa haka Maori te waa tino ataahua o taku, a kaore rawa au e wareware i te wa tuatahi i tohua taku kapa haka ki WAIMA.
Waima Kura is all about Whanaungatanga, Aroha, Integrity, Manaki, Ako are the five things that kept Waima School happy, and joyful, Waima Kura is the most wonderful school I've ever been at, because thats how we roll, and the way we keep our school safe.


On the day when all Waima School performed for the festival I was so excited to perform but also confused because we were supposed to go around the back were the backdrops are, but the entrance was blocked off so we had to go through the tent and onto the stage, I felt so embarrassed and shy but we all did our best with a few mistakes but that didn’t matter at least we all had fun, that's what mattered the most, having fun.

It wasn’t all about keeping it perfect like some dumb rich guy at a wedding, it was all about having fun, in Maori Culture like all our ancestors did before us, and we are able to carry on with our Maori traditions, and our ways for Kapa Haka.

The above was written by one of our students as their reflection of the day.
