Summer Learning Journey - Guiding Principles

Kia Ora blogger's. Today's blog is about whakatauki.


Kotahi te kākano, he nui ngā hua o te rākau.

which means  ‘A tree comes from one seed but bears many fruit.’ 

Did you know that Hōne Heke was a rangatira (chief). He was a strong, fearless warrior, and an intelligent leader. He was the first rangatria to sign Te Tiriti o Waitangi in 1840. 

If you would like to know more about him, feel free to follow the link in his name.

I created a poster about the whakatauki I chose.

  1. Kia Ora Maddison,

    What a great blog. Whakatauki have great meaning behind them. One of my favourite is E kore te patiki e hoki ki tona puehu which translates to The flounder (fish) does not return to his dust. Which means to not make the same mistake twice, or to learn from your mistakes.

    I like that you have referenced Hōne Heke as he is a big part of Maori history.

    Keep up the great work.

    1. Thanks, Mum. I don't know a lot about Whakatauki. I sometimes make mistakes more than twice but then I learn not to do it again or try not to do it again. Hugs and kisses from Maddison :)

  2. Tēnā Koe Maddison,

    Thank you for completing Week 2, Day 4, Activity1. This is a very impressive poster you have created for your chosen Whakatauki today. You have made a very eye-catching poster, the colours stand out and it is very creative!

    What made you want to choose this one to make a poster for?

    Ka kite,
    Kueni :)
