Day 6# bones


Bonus Activity: As part of the Matariki festival, there is a two-day Kapa Haka competition. The Haka is a traditional war dance that Maori performed before going into battle. The haka is now performed by children/adults in the community and by professional sporting teams, including our national rugby team, the ‘All Blacks.’  The All Blacks have performed various haka over the years. Watch the following three haka videos (1 – 3) and, on your blog, list the haka videos in order from best (#1) to worst (#3). There are no right or wrong answers ☺


#1. All Blacks vs South Africa 2016


#3. World Cup 2015 – All Blacks vs Argentina

first all Blacks vs South Africa

second, all blacks vs France

third all black vs Argentina

  1. Kia ora Charis,

    It was so nice to see you yesterday when I came into St Pius to hand out the certificates and prizes! I hope that you were able to take your certificate home and show your family :)

    Both Jacinta and I really enjoyed reading your blogs. In this particular blog I can see that your favourite haka was the All Blacks vs. South Africa haka. I'd love to know more about what you liked. What was it about this haka that grabbed your attention? Was it the way that the team performed the haka or was it the actual haka (i.e. the words) itself? If you have time, I'd love for you to write back and tell me more about your thinking!

    Bye for now,

    Rachel :)
