It is with great excitement that we let you all know of our performance time at this years 30th Otago Polyfest. 11am Thursday 14th September. Please book in your extended lunch breaks to come along and watch your children's performance live.
Everyone involved in our rōpū have been working extremely hard over the last two terms on our items for this years Polyfest. The theme of our items this year is a tribute to Ngāti Tūmatauenga and specifically our tūpuna of The Māori Battalion (Te Hokowhitu ā Tū). With a special focus on their flag that has been recognised for the first time this year bearing the full battle honours.
Te Hokowhitu ā Tū has been great source of pride and guidance for us all and is something we will never forget. We take example of their courage bravery as we ourselves need to stand up and be brave in this world today.
Kia maumahara tātou kia rātou, Kia maumahara tātou kia rātou.
