Te Whanau Raukura, the Kapahaka group came to our school to explain the behind the things they were using. They used the taiaha, poi and te rakau to explain the meaning behind elements of the Maori culture. Next Bekah came into LS2 to show us how to play Pukana. While they were performing I found interesting was that they used the poi to train their wrist because it help get ready to fight when they go to war. It was fun to learn something you didn't know, I thought the poi was just used in a dance. It was really fun learning about the Maori culture and at the end they performed the haka which I found scary.
