Kiana's Beyond Honours Day

Kiana is a student in Nepia House. As part of her Beyond Honours Project, she organised a full day of Maori art (toi) where she coordinated artists, flax weavers, cooks, students from other schools and teachers to come to HNI to assist her.  She organised fifteen workshops that ran three times over the day.  All Nepia students opted into one workshop per session and learnt more about toi, crafts and skills. It was a great day, enjoyed by all.

These two Year 5 students taught whai (string games)  three times over the day.  They were great as they were so keen to help us learn. They were so patient and supportive when trying to teach us how to create a wide range of shapes and designs.
