Ko wai au? Who am I?

Learners in Room 19 have spent the last couple of weeks creating their visual pepeha. A pepeha is a way of introducing ourselves and tell where we have come from. The children all have an individual pepeha as well as a school pepeha that we use. Their pepeha includes their maunga (mountain), awa or moana (river or sea) and their whānau (family). Learners have taken these pepeha and created a visual representation which includes themselves, their maunga, awa and where they are from. You may have seen this on your child’s seesaw. Below are some examples and how we use these pepeha during hui.
