KAPAHAKA @ EAST GORE

Our senior students are very fortunate to have tutoring sessions in kapahaka. Today the boys worked on their actions and learnt the words for the haka. The girls focus was on using the poi correctly and implementing simple commands.

Thanks to Terry Stott, our tutor Charles and his helpers for their time and dedication to this programme.
