Maori Language Week



This week it is Maori language week. It started on Monday 26th July and it ends on Sunday 1st August. During the week all the classes in the school has been taking part in the daily Maori language activity. Everyday we have to translate a Maori phrase to English and find out what it means. We have to watch PINTV because one of the presenters have the student phrase of the day. The presenter that says the Maori phrase are on PINTV everyday to announce the new phrase for everyone to find out. When everyone has there answers they put it into their class bag and a runner from every year 8 class takes their class bag to room 23 and the year 7 classes take their bag to room 43 to get pulled out of the bag. If your name get pulled out of the bag you have to go to room 23 at interval to get your prize. Every class gets a paper with Maori words on it and they have to find the English word. When they have finish their class activity.Each day there are two different activities there is a class activity and a individual activity. Both activities are fun and you get to learn new Maori words and pronounce them correctly.
