Section outline

  • Tēnā tātou, Ko Logan tēnēi,

    Nau mai, haere mai ki te akoako mō te tau.


    Hello and welcome to your Global Studies online page for 2022. Our first learning context for the year is ‘tūrangawaewae’ - this will supply you with the understanding and ability to deepen your connection to our local, national and global community as someone who calls Aotearoa New Zealand their home in 2022.

    We will be dedicating some time to learning a class waiata called ‘Ko te Waipounamu’ from one of my own iwi Rangitāne ki Wairau. Also, you will begin exploring your whakapapa tātai (genealogy) and you will use this research to construct your own pepeha (using the guide I provide you with. The reason for these two projects is they will play a big part in our visit to Te Wānanga o Ōwairoa later in the term.

     
     

    So… that’s the outline, and I look forward to getting to know you and your whānau over the next 4 terms!
