Our cluster has ben learning whakatauki, or Māori proverbs with the aim that we will be able to recite these by heart and use them where appropriate in our practice. I have taken the step of recording this month’s whakatauki, as well as a new pepeha that reflects my new position. I also recorded a karakia whakamutunga, or closing prayer which can be said at the end of a hui, or meeting.
Unfortunately I am unable to add the video or audio of the recordings on here, which is a shame. I have instead attached a photo of my pepeha. Hopefully by forcing myself to listen to my pepeha, karakia and whakatauki (like most people I hate the sound of my own voice!) I will be able to improve my pronunciation and memory.
