We have had such a busy week, leading up to the end of term.
On Monday morning at 9 o’clock we had a very exciting
beginning to our school week. The whole
school was invited by Toro Pikopiko Puppets to watch a puppet show called Te
Rerenga-the-flight, which retold Ngai Tahu legend about Pourangahua and her
epic flight to Aotearoa. This was a musical show featuring life size moving
plywood puppets. We were taken back in time a thousand years, where we were
told the story by animating lots of rock art puppets. We were amazed to find out there were 80
puppets involved throughout the story and lots of children from the audience
were chosen to take the part of the different characters.
