Nau mai, haere mai ki te whānau o Maungakiekie, ki te kura o CPDS

Hello and welcome, to the families at CPDS.

You may be in a big bubble, you may be in a little bubble, but wherever you are, you can enjoy some music!

Pouroto Ngāropo, of Ngati Awa, has described this time of social distancing as 'Te Korowai ō Rongo', which can be translated as ' The Cloak of Healing' .

It's a chance for us to share time with loved ones (in real life, or via various technologies) and reflect, and care for ourselves and others.

'Noho Tawhiti, Tū Kotahi. - Sit at a distance, stand as one.

When the time is right, we welcome you.

But for now, listen.

Papatūānuku (our earth mother) is breathing'.

These songs were written and recorded for this time.

Parody of ‘Everything is Awesome’ Te kōrero paki mō ‘Ka Rāwe Katoa’

Thanks to Pierre Rm 27 for suggesting this song!

Kia Ora Pierre nā te Rūōma 27, mō tenei waiata!
