The dances were all great but I like Te Puku O Te Ika as they were singing a song that represented a leader and a past family member. Everyone's voices were in tune too. I did also really enjoy the Tamatea Arikinui group as they were singing and dancing. The girls pois would swing around their arm but they would recover smoothly. I didn't enjoy the group Te Iti Kahurangi as they had a weird layout and they put weird instruments with other instruments it just sounded awkward.

Hey Lily,
ReplyDeleteYou have done an awesome job with this activity as you have commented on all of the performances. I had a good laugh when you decided you were going to be the X-factor judges on this activity. I really like how you found out about the leader that Te Puku O Te Ika group were mourning. The group was so powerful and expressive that I could feel their emotions.
The Te Matatini festival reminds me of a Kapa Haka festival we celebrate in my home town of Taupo. The Tuwharetoa festival is held every year with all schools in the area participating. I look forward to attending this every year and love watching my former high school performance.
Mahi whakamataku (awesome work) Amie,

Hello Megan,
DeleteWhen I was coming up with the X - Factor bit at the time I was watching the X factor and I was like "Wow I could say this in my blog"
(P.S... You called me Amie at the end),
