Te Wiki Maori 27-30 July 2009

Hello Home and Away friends!

I've been away on various adventures since my last entry, that is why I have been MIA (missing in action) for a while. I shall tell you more stories in the blogs to follow, but for now, I am inviting everyone to attend the Maori Week events at the Uni for the week of 27-30 July.

There shall be public seminars about different Maori haka, and I highly recommend attending it. I attended today's lecture about the ngeri of te Rauparaha, He Oranga Mai. It was amazing!!! The Maori haka is best heard narrated and performed live, so I invite everyone to attend the Maori Week events in campus.

The Ka Mate haka shall be presented tomorrow, 28 July, at AG30 (the building across Block E, at the Science and Engineering blocks), from 12nn-1pm. This should be interesting and at the same time culturally enriching, as the Ka Mate  is also the All Blacks' official haka.

See you there!!!
