22 kaiako and 2 tamariki came together for a shared pikiniki. We started with a karakia and each took turns to share the food we bought along to our virtual pikiniki. We had a guessing game and were well supported by our expert kaiako who taught us some knew phrases and vocabulary. But most of all - we had fun!

Our school team just finished our Reo moment. I got so lost enjoying the moment of listening to everyone's kōrero sharing what they had for kai that I didn't eat. Now, ināpō, last night one of our amazing kaiako lovingly collated te reo messages from students in our syndicate Ara Teina, this whakaahua/photo is me enjoying my kai while watching and listening to all of the tamariki who sang, spoke, recited and performed reo. E hāro ana taku ngākau - My heart is singing.

Arahoe Team Teina are paddling our waka under the banner of our school whakataukī 'He waka eke noa' to support the movement to normalise Te Reo in Aotearoa and help break the record for this kaupapa. We love kai and we thought it a simple and fun excuse for us to have a virtual kaitahi/shared kai, say karakia together, have some online whanaungatanga and practise Māori words and phrases. Our goal is to set an example for our tamariki, role model how Te Reo can be used anywhere, and that its fun to learn with friends and whānau. Kia Kaha Te Reo!
