Kapa Haka Performance

Our Tainui Kapa Haka Group performed beautifully on Saturday
evening at the Bayfield Matariki concert. Tainui can be very proud
and it was a wonderful opportunity for the group to practice for the
Polyfest later in the year. A special thanks to Paulette and Komene for
the work they have done with the group and to Maia Smith for her
support. Thanks also to Jane Leslie and Tracey Cooper for the work
they have done with costumes and to all the other parents and
caregivers who have supported our Kapa Haka Group.

What we have been doing.

This has been a busy week for Tainui children with the Gym
Festival, a Miniball Competition at the Edgar Centre and
preparation for the Matariki Concert by the Kapa Haka Group at
Bayfield High School this weekend.
Junior children have been enjoying experiments about sand, salt and jelly crystals. The Middle School children have been learning about the science of popcorn. Senior Classes have been focusing on the first Scottish Settlers to Otago.
