Term 3 Powhiri

Today Glen Taylor School had there very own powhiri with the help of lots of kind people. If you don't know what a powhiri is then I'll tell you what it is. A powhiri is a Maori Welcoming. We had welcomed on the new students, parents and staff to Glen Taylor School. Our very own kapa haka group had performed and also our Pacifika Pearls. The kapa haka group had also got to put their new Kapa Haka clothes in action. That is also why Fair Go had came to video their performances. Anyways, why don't you take a look at the photos that were taken on that day!

Fair Go

On Monday you might of seen our Kapa Haka group on Fair Go. If not you can by clicking this link to the Fair Go website. Fair Go The reason why Glen Taylor School was on Fair Go is because our principal had emailed a lady to design the Kapa Haka groups new uniforms and we would pay her for designing them. Mr Herlihy (our school principal) had payed her the cash and yet we still haven't got the uniforms. She said that they would be here around December 2016- January 2017. Once the Fair Go episode uploaded our principal had gotten a lot of emails\text messages from people saying that they want to donate some cash to our school. Luckily a man in South Auckland was kind enough to design Kapa Haka uniforms for Glen Taylor School. What's so good about this is that he was that kind he said he'll design them for free. Fair Go had came in today to record the schools reaction of how happy we are to receive these amazing new uniforms. Some pictures were taken during the session with the Fair Go crew.  There are also pictures of the Kapa Haka group when they had gone down to South Auckland to see how there uniforms are made.
