E papa waiari - learn my moves at home

E papa waiari


The Year 1 Syndicate are leading school assembly next week.  Room 9 is taking the lead role in E Papa - which is a maori stick dance to the below lyrics.  Today we practiced the actions and song 

This is the link they can sing along to and practice their moves.

I cant seem to upload the video of the children showing all their sequenced moves but we will practice again tomorrow
and they can take the rakau home again to show you.

E papa waiari

E auë, ka mate au
E hine, hoki mai rä

E papa waiari
Taku nei mahi
Taku nei mahi
He tuku roimata

E auë, ka mate au
E hine, hoki mai rä

Mäku e kaute ö hïkoitanga
Mäku e kaute ö hïkoitanga

E auë, ka mate au
E hine, hoki mai rä
