This is a PMI that as a staff, we collaboratively put together in reflection of our Marae trip last week.
My thoughts: I took an active part in planning and organising this day, including putting together RAMS forms and transport to and from the marae. I also really enjoyed the morning at Toumata O Te Ra as it was a new experience. For me, it has been many years since being on a marae and I felt privileged to be welcomed onto the marae and be made to feel so welcome. I thought the students enthusiasm and respect was outstanding and they asked such great, open-ended questions. Next time I would like to spend perhaps the whole day there and allow the children to spend more time in the whare doing some drawing and more exploring around the kowhaiwhai patterns and also providing the time for the children to speak and discuss more maori cultural values etc.

Today, my class have learnt the structure and are writing their own personal pepeha.
As Te Reo Maori is a second language and is often difficult for my children to pronounce accurately, I have recorded my own pepeha and put it into Room 5 google drive so the children can refer to it and listen to pronunciation. I also thought that by myself presenting my pepeha it shows my inclusion of Maori tikanga and Te Reo in my vocabulary and shows the children that we can all have a go.
