Ngā Toi o te Ao Tawhito mo te Ao Tawhiti - Arts of the Old World for the Distant World.
Please email Marz if you would like to join this course.
In 4.2 Students will be learning the language, the culture and mainly some of our Māori Arts to help them in their artistic creations.
This programme runs at the Climate Action Campus on Mondays with Jon Jeet. On other days, Marz will work with ākonga at school.
The proposed programme will cover:
- Karakia,
- Waiata,
- Pepeha,
- Whakapapa looking at one’s geneology,
- Te Reo me ōna Tikanga
- Pangarau/Maths Māori styles & language,
- Goal Setting,
- Iwi, Hapu,
- Retelling our legends, Storytelling,
- Designing for all topics like whakapapa to retelling,
- Design to canvas (note: if parents want to donate canvasses they will be appreciated)
- Design for carving; stone, pounamu & wood
In Week 9 I hope to have a Gallery Art Show of the students work.
Students need:
- A3 Art envelope; Clearbook A4 &/or A3; pencil, eraser, ruler, canvas any size; although a lot of these can be supplied
- Lunch for shared lunches (rostered parents maybe organised in term 4?)
Parents/Whānau are most welcome to come to attend and/or support lessons if you have the time. A more detailed rātaka -itinerary will be supplied in Term 4.
