A mihimihi is a short greeting to introduce our self to other people in te reo Maori.
It is an important part of the process of meeting people for the first time.
Room 1 have been learning to write, read and present our own mihimihi in te reo Maori.
Our mihi includes where we come from, our nationality (iwi), mountain (maunga) and river (awa), school, age and name. We have worked collaboratively to help each other with our pronunciation and understanding.
To know who we are, we have to know where we come from.
Welcome to Room 1's blog for 2016. We are a class of energetic year 4/5 learners and our teacher is Mrs Poole.
Room 1 you are all super stars !! Very clear speaking voices and beautifully presented. Well done. I think Mrs Poole has some future TV presenters amongst you gorgeous kids.
