Te Maurea Whiritoi finish second in Tainui Regional Kapa Haka Competition

Last weekend our combined HBHS and HGHS Kapa Haka group Te Maurea Whiritoi competed in the Tainui Regional Kapa Haka competition, which doubles as an opportunity to qualify for the National Secondary Schools Kapa Haka event, and our team finished second, thus guaranteeing them a spot in the National Competition later this year.  The group also won a number of sub-categories, including Whakawatea (the exit), Kaitataki Wahine (female leader) and the Waiata Tira (choral song).  We congratulate our group once more on performing so well and very much look forward to covering their progress as they build towards the Nationals.  Kia kaha!
