Waiata and Ukulele Workshops – Central and South Auckland

June 2, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - June 16, 2021 @ 8:30 pm

$180.00

WAIATA & UKULELE

For beginners

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

To increase teachers repertoire of waiata, kupu/words and basic kiwaha/phrases that enhance children’s identity, belonging and wellbeing.

Presented by Maria Sydney in CENTRAL and SOUTH Auckland.

Only $180.00pp for the series of 3 workshops!

This series of three workshops will be an opportunity to build your confidence in using te reo Māori, while raising cultural awareness through learning the tikanga and pūrakau associated with waiata.

Having a particularly strong interest and passion for te reo Māori herself, Maria will weave te reo Māori and matauranga Māori (i.e karakia, waiata and ideas to support bicultural practice) throughout the workshops and be available for support with pronunciation and tips as well.

A safe, relaxed and fun learning space will be provided to ensure that all akonga have ample time and support throughout the workshops where needed.

Waiata can have deep symbolic meaning and can be used to reflect whakapapa, purakau/ stories, identity and cultural values.

Learning (outcomes) for tamariki:

Waiata are fun for tamariki and enhances mana, creativity, language acquisition, participation and so much more! 

Supports awareness of sounds, words, rhythm and rhyme

Ability to be creative and expressive through learning and singing waiata 

Using actions that accompany waiata can help with co-ordination skills too.

The use of te reo and tikanga Māori support tamariki to connect with their identity as Māori and strengthens their sense of belonging and wellbeing.

Brought to you by Maria Sydney.
