Today at Panmure Bridge School we got some visitor's to perform for us. Our visitor's were a Kapa Haka group that also perform at the Auckland museum. They did kapa haka dances, showed and taught our school about the different types of tools that they used in the past for kapa haka dances and what kind of songs and dances they danced and sang to. Some of the objects they showed us were not only for dances but also for war and they would use them as weapons. After they told our school the facts about all the things they used for kapa haka performances, our school kapa haka group performed to our visitor's as a sign for our respect and to thank them for taking their time out of something else to come and perform for us. Something that Room 2 has learnt from our visitor's is that a kapa haka performance isn't just a dance that Maori people do but they also do it welcome new visitor's and also to show respect.
