Wero o te Wiki - Challenge of the week

Wero o te Wiki - Challenge of the week

This week is Te Wiki o te reo Māori ~Māori Language Week, and this year's theme is 
"Ākina te reo ~Give te reo a go!"
To celebrate there was a challenge set to the whole school to record a phrase in te reo Māori! 
The weekly challenge is to encourage our learners to use more te reo use around the school, especially in the playground!
There will be challenges every week for the rest of the year, so come on West Melton - Ākina te reo!

The phrase of this week was: "Kia kaha e hoa mā! ~Let's go team!"

There were fantastic videos sent in from school and even some from at home - thank you - it was tino pai to hear you kōrero Māori!
And the winner is: West Melton Junior Kapa Haka Group! Here is their winning entry (link for video)

Kaia D and Finnian S accepted the certificate on behalf of the group at Pukeko Presents today.


Koia, koia ~well done everyone!
