Matatihi - Maia's Journey of Bravery

Our tamariki enjoyed the performance today from our friends at the Court Theatre with this year's show, Matatihi - Maia's Journey of Bravery.
The wonderful thing about this performance was that it incorporated all four disciplines within the Arts - Dance, Drama, Visual Art, and Music.
It's not an easy task to keep over 400 students engaged and focused for 40mins but Kim, Albany and Jane did it beautifully, and we loved it!

Thank you to Kim, Albany and Jane for an amazing performance.

We loved these props!

All the props are made from recycled materials - Titi was made from an old mop.

It's been a big day for Pouakai

This performance was based on a lot of different stories from people in our local area who have been brave and who have a story to tell.

When did you last feel brave? Who helped you to feel brave?
