In our PE lessons we have been learning the Haka. Haka are traditional dances performed by the Maori people who are indigenous to New Zealand. Traditionally, Haka were performed by warriors before battle as a way to intimidate their enemies. They are performed at special occasions such as weddings and funerals. Famously, a Haka is performed by New Zealand’s All Blacks and Black Ferns rugby teams before a match.
Over the next few weeks we will be learning Haka movements, leading to a choreographed dance phrase based on the Ka Mate Haka.
