Today for this activity I had to find my favourite Maori waiata. I had to research for a Maori song that I really love to listen to and why.
Here is my answer:
My favourite music is E te iwi e. I love this waita so much because we sing it in our school and even since the Kapa Haka group sings it I get along with sinning it too. If you wanna listen to my favourite Maori Waita click here.

Hi Mele,
ReplyDeleteRuby here from the Summer Learning Journey team! It's great to see that you've been working on these activities. Keep up the good work!
That is a great waiata. I had never heard it before so enjoyed listening to it. It's great that you sing it at your school! Do you enjoy singing?
What is this waiata about? I think that the meaning of a song is just as important as the tune. We need to know what we're singing about!
I look forward to reading more of your blog over the summer.
Cheers,
Ruby.
Greetings Mele
ReplyDeleteGreat job on completing this activity, I like how you even explained why you like it so much as well. I have a question though, does anyone else in your family like the song?
Hello Mele
ReplyDeleteGreat job on completing this summer learning journey activity. All waiatas are pretty good but E te iwi e (I think) is one of the best. Keep up the awesome work Mele!
