Maori Language Week

To celebrate Maori Language Week we sang a new song, and learnt the Maori words for parts of our body. Melanie stuck stickers on a rather unsuspecting Bob, to help us remember:
Upoko = head
Puku = stomach
Turi = knee
Waewae = feet

Bob broke out the guitar and we sang Takahia means stamp.

We also met a new puppet friend, and sang a very old song (which was new for many of our group!), The Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly!

Congratulations to winners of our photo competition; Noah, Maddy & Rose, Caleb, Dominic, Laura & Amelia. You all win some bubbles to blow, so you can sing 'Bubbles Pop!' at home. We hope the Bunn family will share their shakers with us next week at instrument time!
