Māori@Marshland - Pukeko

Sam Jones

The Pukeko Hub has had a great start to Term 2! Last week, we got straight back into our learning by spending our afternoons creating our visual pepehas. As part of this, we drew pictures of our parents - matua and whaea, our home - Ōtautahi, and korus to decorate. We are now learning and practicing how to say our pepehas confidently and clearly to others. Make sure to keep a look out for our pepeha art next time you're in the Pukeko Hub.

  Welcome back to Term 3! This term we will be focusing on colours and items of clothing. Hopefully after a few weeks you will be able to mix and match the colours and the items of clothing.

Māori@Marshland - Kiwi

Cecile Lyon In the kiwi hub we read the legend of 'Maui and the sun'. We imagined we were Maui catching the sun and created these Art works. For Matariki we made kites that were inspired by the book 'The seven kites of Matariki'.

Māori@Marshland - Toroa

 By Bex Osborn In Toroa we delved further into understanding the importance of representing who we are, where we come from and the stories we can tell.  Ta moko is a traditional facial tattoo that shows about our whanau and where we have come from.  The students looked into the meaning of various shapes in Maori culture and linked this back to their whanau and culture and created their own Ta moko.
