Week 8- #MaoriLanguageWeek

This week was Te Reo Maori Week

As always Rowandale did it in their own special

way :)

Open ceremony 

This weeks challenge was to learn a whakatauki.

Whakapono 19 linked ours to our Manu Aute and PRIDE

Kaua e mate wheke mate ururoa

Don't die like a octopus, die like a hammerhead shark

Octopus are renown for their lack of resistance when being captured, however a hammerhead shark will fight bitterly to the end, to the point that when you fillet it fresh, its meat quivers. Commonly used to encourage someone not to give up, no matter how hard the struggle is.
