Thanks to the children and teachers of Northland school for coming along to visit us on Friday. Our Friday friends did a wonderful job of being tangata whenua and welcoming our manuhiri onto the kindergarten tūrangawaewae ( the place we stand) we sang our usual welcomes- 'tihei mauriora' and the Northland kindergarten origin song..... and as a challenge we pulled them onto our mat time space using 'toia mai - te waka' as a welcome haka. We'd love to share more images of how this went as we did so well, but we have a lot of Friday friends whose families have not completed or returned facebook or blogger

blogger permission forms. If you want to see how this went ..... check out the clips at kindergarten. if you can't see them - just ask a team member to help you locate them on our corner computer.
