Before we had the modern technology of txting, calling and emailing, people used to communicate more by word of mouth! This week we are learning about an important way that Maori communicate, and that is, by sharing their Pepeha.

A Pepeha (or Mihi) is a way of introducing yourself. It tells people who you are and where you come from. We will be reading other peoples' Pepeha and we will create our own.
