KIA PIKI TE ORA!!!!
19th September 2014 - Hei Manaaki (wk 6)
Kii pai te whare ano tenei ra - Wow our whare is filling up each week so great to see - (Kylie Simeon, Mere Simon, Wikitoria Makiha, Te Kai Makiha, Rena Parangi, Teresa Hart, Viv & Joe Body, Te Kura Herbert, Nico Brandstaetter, Dr Bruce Gregory & Joy Wikitira & myself)
Ngā Tūpou takitahi, takirua, takitoru: our Ataarangi class today was learning all the personal pronouns for singular (ahau, ia, koe), dual (tāua, māua, rāua, korua) or more (mātou, tātou, rātou, koutou)NIKAU
We learnt about the Nikau - trailing the food of rangatira
KUMARAHOU & RAURINGA OR MAANO
We learnt about Kumarahou, its appearance, how it grows we even got to try Whaea Viv's new mix which was lovely to drink - Kumarahou simmered in Ribena and Cranberry juice which was a very refreshing drink that even children and adults alike would be able to drink - you couldn't seem to taste that bitter taste that Kumarahou is so well known for.
Papa Joe also shared information about the Rauringa or Maano as it is known in other parts of the country. The see through veins of the leaves indicate the many healing properties it has as an internal healing remedy - in fact 'a thousand uses' as described by Papa Joe.
WHAKATAUKI MO TE WIKI
We were able to share whakatauki and how we would interpret its meaning for us as individuals
OUR SHARED LUNCH - AMAZING KAI "Ma tou rourou, ma toku rourou ka ora ai te iwi" "With your contribution and our contribution we will make progress."
But our interpretation "With your basket, and my basket we will all have an amazing feed"
