Day 4 Bonus Activity ll Summer Learning Journey

.
Bonus Activity: Musical Festivals – Matatini

In New Zealand, a huge festival is held every two years, called Te Matatini. This performing arts festival celebrates the tikanga (culture or customs) of Māori. Kapa Haka groups from around New Zealand are invited to attend the festival and each group gives a 25-minute performance. The performances are judged and the best teams win prizes.

The gold medal winning team from this year (2017) was Te Kapa Haka o Whāngārā Mai Tawhiti.

Watch these three clips from previous Te Matatini festivals.

  1. Hey there Brooke, I've really enjoyed reading this activity that you have recently posted. I especially like the way that you've decided to present the information. The red and white writing on the black stands out really effectively and makes it super easy to read. Thank you!

    I liked how you judged each performance on different aspects, such as their costumes, their volume, their dance moves, how synchornised their singing was, and you even acknowledged that one performance was dedicated to someone who has passed on.

    Great job, have you ever been apart of a performance?

    Thanks, Billy
