This term we have been been learning to correctly pronounce both an opening and closing karakia. Very soon we will all have a fotobabble inserted into our blog after a few weeks of practicing.
Whakataukī
Mā pango mā whero ka oti.
By black and red together it is done.
(The united effort of the leaders and the workers will get things done.)
Tikanga
Introduction aspects of tikanga Māori we have considered:
- We are responsible for looking after our classroom and showing respect for the people and the things in it.
- The concept of ako (learner/learning) is reciprocal. We learn different things from one another all the time. Teachers, students, parents, and whānau can all learn from each other.
- Beginning the school day with a karakia is an appropriate way for many to set the tone for the day. You don’t have to be religious to engage in Karakia.
