Whanau Panui - Family Notice

Tena koutou katoa The Geraldine community has the opportunity to join together in learning and performing kapa haka with Komene Kururangi! Somene is an expert tutor of kapa haka, with his groups gaining national honours for their performances. He is a tutor of Te Reo Maori at the Wanganga o Aotearoa based in Timaru and is prepared to support our community with a kapa haka course, for people of all ages, in the lead up to a performance at Geraldine Arts and Plants Festival. Whanau and community members are invited to a hui to meet Komene and discuss the following kaupapa: Raukapuka is a culturally competent and confident community with a trained kaiako Maori delivering te reo Maori levels 1-5+ for whanau, and kapa haka is thriving, by the community for the community.
