Dear Parents/Caregivers
Papakowhai School participated in the Kapo
Kapo festival last week to celebrate Matariki. It was a great night. Here is
some of the feedback we received.
The
event was amazing and I was so proud of our school for all the hard work that
was put in to make our performance one of the best. What a wonderful school
that can all join together and put in so much work to achieve such high praise.
It is a school that I am proud to be a part of. Finally I would like to say
well done to all the children involved that put so much into the
performance. You could see that they
were all 100 % committed and were giving it their all.
Just a quick note to say how wonderful it was to be a Papakowhai
parent last night! The kids looked so polished and poised and performed so well
given their short time together. It's been really cool for my daughter to
have something she can connect to culturally and she's thoroughly enjoyed it.
I just wanted to say how fantastic the Kapa Haka group was last
night. You would never know that Papakowhai hadn't had a group in 7 years. Well
done. Wouldn't it be great if the rest of the school could see it at the
end of term assembly? Well done again. I loved watching them.
My granddaughter was one of the
Papakowhai School children who really enjoyed the experience of performing last
night. I think that they presented a very polished performance. For all of the
children it is another of the memorable experiences of being part of a group,
and learning new skills and building self-confidence. It is really appreciated!
Just wanted to say that I was so proud of the school
tonight at the Kapo Kapo, what a great performance by our young ones. You would
never have known that they hadn't performed together before, it was just
fantastic. Thanks for all the work you put into making this happen, and please
pass on my thanks to our tutors.
