"Waiata is a portal to our tupuna."
- Meri Haami
This Play Week, let’s celebrate the significance of waiata 🎶
Waiata are not just songs; they are vessels of knowledge, connecting us to our tūpuna and empowering us in our journey🌟
Each note is woven with healing properties, offering solace and strength.
For our tamariki, engaging with waiata enhances their reo and makes learning enjoyable.
Let’s embrace this beautiful tradition, fostering a love for our reo and culture in our youngest generations. Together, we can unlock the wisdom of our past while nurturing the voices of our future! 🎼🎶

Capturing the essence of our ancestral playground 🌊 - where our hearts and minds interconnect with the mauri and wairua of our whenua.🌳
"My playground is here, is in my mind, in my senses, in my heart, playing, every single day. I am extremely grateful to the spiritual powers at be who have allowed this elderly woman to surpass 80 years, despite not being as acrobatic as the grandchildren I am encouraging to jump.
Here is my playground, my friends. How could we separate food sources. How could we exclude the forest. How could we overlook the ocean? How could we ignore the rivers?
Therein lies my sustenance. That is where my birds are found. There is my vitality. This is my playground" [ Kuini Moehau Reedy - Toi Tangata Hui a Tau 2022]
Honouring the wisdom of Nanny Kuini Moehau-Reedy imparting knowledge and reminding us of the invaluable lessons through the interconnectedness of relationships between tangata and tāiao. 🧘⭐🌖☀️

Our tamariki bring fresh perspectives and insights, reminding us that learning is a lifelong journey. ✨
