In the first two weeks of school, Rimu class learnt how to create and say our mihi in Māori. This is our introduction to our class and community. We also created a ‘visual mihimihi’ artwork to accompany our speeches. Each visual mihimihi had to have 3 parts to it:
- A self portrait or a photo
- Places of significance to us
- Symbols or pictures that re present our culture
Those of us who spoke clearly, confidently with excellent pronunciation with great visuals and layout scored well on our rubric. Take a look at my mihi and tell us what you think about it.
