Dear Room 2...

Sorry...not sorry.

HOW LUCKY ARE WE!

As part of the Kaboom Art Competition prize pack, at some point in the near future, we have scored a session with the artist/illustrator Daron Parton.

Want to be awesome and learn a local haka?

Tau Ka Tau originates from a traditional haka that is common to the Waikato area. From the translations, we could assume that this is a poowhiri haka (haka of welcome).  However, as we have learnt, haka is about community, strength and unity, therefore could be performed to serve other purposes too.

Tau ka tau!!! 
Hiii 
Tau ka tau!!! 
Hii 
Tau ka tau!!!

 Ki runga o Waikato whāngaia mai rā 
Nge nge ngeee 
Arā tu arā te arā tau
 i tahi ka riri, toru ka whā!! 
Homai o kupu kia wetewetea, wetewetea, 
arā tuu arā te arā tau
