Level 2 Te Ao Haka
Course Description
Te Ao Haka is a new subject at Heretaunga College which provides opportunities for students to engage with Māori culture, language and traditional practice. Together, we will explore the various items performed in a Kapa Haka bracket, such as mōteatea, waiata ā-ringa, poi and haka. We will learn about the whakapapa, conventions and style of each item and learn about variations from iwi and hapu.
Students will be assessed on a live performance. This means that this class will form a Kapa Haka and learn a bracket. Throughout the year we will learn and rehearse our bracket, both in class and in noho marae, before performing in front of an audience. Our ambition will be for our class to compete at the Secondary Schools Kapa Haka Competition regionals in 2025.
