Mihimihi

Room 1 have been aiming to use more Te Reo in the classroom throughout the day. We are making great steps to use more Maori in our day to day life at school. 

Below is the Mihimihi that we have been learning in class, we started my just saying lines 4, 5, and 6, with help from the posters that we have on our board. Now many of us can confidently say the whole thing from memory! 


Ka tangi te tītī, ka tangi te kākā,

ka tangi hoki ahau,

Tihei mauri ora.

Ko . . . . . . . . tōku pāpā

Ko . . . . . . . . tōku māmā

Ko . . . . . . . . ahau

Nō reira

Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa


We are going to continue to learn this in class and we will be adding more information to it as we progress. Please help us at home so that we are ready for in class learning.

I knew that I had to summon my mighty dragons. - Tane I came to a door that was never there before. I opened the crusty old door and it made a creaking noise. - Isaac One morning I crept up an alley way to a door. I opened it and it made a scraping noise. "crrrr!." It was so dark and I didn't know where to go. - Ruby One misty morning I was walking to my school until I saw a house. It was a dark, black, spooky house. The paint was peeling off like a snake peeling its old skin. - Asher "I'm not lying, there was even steam coming out of it's horns." Then it came stomping up to me, I quickly yelled, "Mum! Mum! Mum! A monster!" - Karin...
