The Turanganui Kapa Haka Festival! I had a blast, I love kapa haka. My tummy was turning as I got my moko kauae printed on my face with the black lipstick. When we boarded the bus I was so excited! We have been practicing all year, there is nothing to be nervous about I repeat to myself, that why we are here. As we got there we watched our little kids they were amazing, they sang our school song with pride. After there performance we got pulled behind the stage.
As I happily walked onto stage, the strum of Koka Sue's guitar stared our performance. Our whole Nui sang our songs with pride. The nice sound of the the piupiu swaying with our takahia in the background sounded amazing. I was having so much fun on the stage singing our school songs. But the haka was now coming up and when the boys were coming to the front the girl really had to sing loud with the boys doing a little haka. Now the boys where at the front yelling there haka with strength.We were behind them and charting the haka too you could just hear us.
But just like that our performance was over, it seemed to quick at least I gave it 100%. We had some quick photos by the parents then we jumped on the bus and started heading to school.I can't WAIT to kapa haka next year!
