Kapa haka Group

Our Kapa haka is a well established Maori Performing Arts group.

The Kapa haka group is led by Mrs Marara Schreurs.

In Term 1 we welcome all students to come to practices, this is so they can get a chance to experience performing. It also allows them a chance to make a commitment to the group in Term 2. Students range from Year 7 to Year 13 and are all committed to the principals of Manaaki Orewa.
