We have looked at Kiwi culture in our Around the World project and now, since Tiana is part Maori, we are looking at Maori culture. It is very interesting and when she brought in her poi it was a perfect opportunity to watch some videos of dances with poi and to practice using some too. Annabelle and Lande quickly made up a few and we all got to practice and find out more about Tiana's cultural background. Tiana is so proud of her poi, they are beautiful Tiana!
We will also be doing lots more Maori art, Maori stick games and will be finding out all about the traditional clothes and music as well as making sure we all learn some new Te reo words or phrases.
