L.I to learn about the Maori culture
Today we had a performance from the Te Whanau Raukura group who perform at the Auckland museum. They came to perform cultural Maori dances, teach us the meaning behind the dances and why they do them. We also showcased some of the items and weapons that they use, the first one was the taiaha which is a long spear type weapon that the Maori people used in battle. The second item they showed us were the rakau sticks which is used to play games with. The last item they showed us was the poi which is an item that use use your wrists to swing.
