Yesterday Newlands Intermediate brought us our new principal, Brendon Henderson. We held a formal welcome for him where we exchanged songs and welcomed him to Tawa Intermediate.
What did you think about the powhiri? Did you learn/see anything new? Is it important to have a powhiri? Why or why not?
What did you think about the powhiri?
ReplyDeleteI think it was cool seeing the Newlands College and Newlands show us the haka they did it was very cool.
Did you learn/see anything new?
I saw that the new principal wearing A maori feathered coat and it remindered me of the maori chiefs wearing Huia feathers.
Is it important to have a powhiri?
Yes because it's a good way to greet and welcome people to our school.

Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteThe Powhiri was new to me and i liked it was a good opportunity to discover the what newZealand do to welcome guest to there country,house or even school.
Hey,
ReplyDeleteI 'm not sure what I think of the Powhiri. But It was cool seeing Newlands hand him over. I didn't see or learn anything new. I think it is important to welcome someone. But I don't think you need to have a Powhiri.
