Last term our class educated our school on using the PRS (Personal Response System) Room 1 is a bi-lingual class that incorporates the use of two languages, Maori (which is New Zealand's indigenous language)and English. The teacher in room 1 is whaea Manawaroa who is the composer of this beautiful waiata (song). This is their gift to our class for teaching them how to use the PRS system. Thank you room 1.
At Peachgrove Intermediate we are committed to providing our students with a stimulating two year educational programme focusing on continuous improvement of academic results. We also offer a wide variety of extra-curricula activities in music, sport, outdoor education and cultural experiences. We encourage students to take advantage of as many of these varied opportunities as possible.

What a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing! Like everyone else is saying I can't wait to share this to my class. It will be a wonderful introduction to a language, that I'm said to say, we didn't even know existed! Awesome.
Keep Singing

I am very impressed. Even though I did not understand the words, it sounded beautiful. You have some excellent musicians in your class. I had my class listen to the song this morning and they were very impressed.

What an awesome gift Room 11. Make sure you let Room 1 know how many people have enjoyed their waiata!

What a wonderful gift. I listened to it all, and even though I did not understand the words, the music, enthusiasm and meaning conveyed was beautiful.
I thank you too.
I want very much to go to New Zealand some time. Your song encourages me to work very hard to do that!
Thanks!

You guys did a very good job.You guys did an excellent job on singing the song although we couldn't understand the words.You know why don't you sing the song in English and put it in the blog or type the words in English and post it on the blog. You guys did a very good job on the song.
It should be hard for you guys and girls to sing a song in English.
But that was better then we do in music.
