Celebration of our culture
In New Zealand we have some unique ways of greeting each other - one way is saying our name, our parents names, our grandparents and our place of origin, including how we arrived in New Zealand and the mountain and water we identify with. All are ways of sharing with a group 'who we are', valuing our past and helping individuals to have a firm sense of belonging. Room 1 children have videoed each other saying the beginning of their mihi as part of their inquiry into their culture.

Wow Room 1! Room 7 are so impressed with your Mihi. We looked at your videos before we did ours. Hopefully we will get ours up before the end of the week. Thank you for sharing your work.
