Year 6 'Haka' dance lesson - Feb 2015

Lesson: Physical education

Class: Year 6H Year: 2014 - 2015

Our first dance lesson this half term involved looking at 'The Haka'.

The Haka is a war dance invented by the Maori tribe in New Zealand.

It was performed to scare their enemies, to help get them ‘psyched up’ for battle and make them feel like a team.

Now the New Zealand rugby team, the ‘All Blacks’ perform it before each of their games to try and put off their opponents!

Look at our scary faces...!
