Georges Grandma

Grandma

Is  your grandma cuddly, kind, loving, loves cooking and baking cookies, brownies and choc fudge for parties?  Well George's Grandma isn’t

George's grandma doesn't smile very often, when she smiles she smiles very horridly. The beastly old hags mouth is puckered like a dogs bottom, when she speaks it's like a soft ghostly echoey voice.

She has the most disgusting diet ever she says “ you should grow down not up and eat cabbage” YUCK!!! And cabbage is the worst thing in the WORLD plus she says to eat slugs, beetle bugs, earwigs and caterpillars EWWWW!!!!!.

“AHHHHHH!! “  George's grandma is frightening. She has horny fingers and a razor pointed nose as sharp as a knife, a wrinkled  face and a long frosty smile.

My grandma is cuddly and kind and hopefully your grandma is too?  but if not I have a marvelous recipe for you!

Tangaroa and the Taniwha

Above the wakas was an enchanted, inky, tremendously dreary and gloomy sky. The crackling of lightning lit up the moana. The Maori’s had left Hawaiki in their wakas in search of a new land.

Suddenly from the murky depths rose a colossal taniwha. The taniwha had immense fangs, glowing scary eyes and was the most terrifying monster of the sea. The monstrous taniwha devoured some of the petrified warriors on the wakas.

Hearing the sound of destruction brought Tangaroa to the surface to see what was happening.  Tangaroa was a muscular god, he had a fearsome moko on his mata telling them all his about father and his mother. He was a brave sea warrior, he had massive strength, long hair like a smooth kauri tree trunk. He held a tewhatewha in his bulky hand.

Tangaroa shouted “What are you doing in my moana?” He cut the pitch black tattooed taniwha’s enormous flesh. The tanwhia shrieked out in pain “Grrrrrrr”. The wretched taniwha splattered the ocean with scarlet blood, the waka filled up with magma red. The ocean was a catastrophe of red coloured blood. The taniwha lay in three pieces.

One piece of the taniwha became the majestic North Island of Aotearoa, the second piece became the stunning South Island and the last became Stewart Island.  Now you know how Tangaroa created Aotearoa.

The Waka

Waka

 “Ka mate, Ka mate, kora, kora will I die will I die will I live will I live” thunders around the sea. It’s the sound of tattooed monsters. The waka is breathtaking with the loud, tremendous sound of war and tingling of adrenaline.

“Splash” the waka is like a knife cutting the sea. The vessel is now a taniwha sticking its tongue out saying ”I will eat you”.

As we continue I feel anxious, my fellow bulky warriors blast with their strength and fearsome pukanas. The carved patterns on one side come from my beloved mother's side and the other half is my father's side. We are heading to our destination to tear them apart for stealing our land.

How to Hongi

The Hongi 

What is a hongi? 

A hongi is the pressing of noses, which symbolises the exchange of the breath of life 

When does the hongi happen? 

When the tangata whenua side indicates that the speeches are complete, the manuhiri speakers approach the tangata whenua to hongi 

The hongi is a greeting that shows respect to the tangata-whenua  and show that there will be no harm so if you do it incorrectly it will change the meaning, so that's why you have to do it correctly.
