Matua Manuell legacy!

Legacy left behind from Matua Manuell



Matua Manuell, a kind loving man who left such a huge legacy behind. His kids carrying on with
what he gave them, teaching kapa haka, how to dance and many more. Always one to laugh with
and have fun with, never a dull moment with him. Dancing was always fun practicing but hard at the
same time always a way to hype yourself up. Kapa haka, a way to express yourself, your emotions,
to let everything out and feel your passion within it.



Childhood:
His upbringing was really good but it was tough with money. They didn’t exactly have all the
money in the world and it was rough. He had a lot of siblings ( 9 siblings!!! ) and it  was very hard
so they couldn’t really fork out. He was born in 1963, 20th of November. His parents names are
Manuell Maunsell and Rangi Bennet, and was brought up with country music.



Family:
He had a loving family and they grew up having a big heart like him. They’ve grown up and had
their own kids, who are like them amazingly talented and have amazing voices. He’s left a big
impact in his kids life and will never be forgotten. They’re always thinking of him everyday and will
remember him no matter what. His generation will never be broken with his talented kids and grand
kids who are one of kind just like him.



Legacy:
He left a huge impact and legacy behind for his kids, he left behind kapa haka as well as dancing.
Kapa haka was the biggest thing in their lives and no matter what they’d always be practicing in a
way.Through their ups and downs they’ve made it so far and Matua Manuell left good within them.
Kapa haka is still strong within his family jeans and nothing will ever break it! Dancing was mainly
Horraces thing but Matua Manuell was there to whakapiki and help support with what he needed.



Matua Manuell was a loving amazing man, but unfortunately we have lost him. Our hearts were
broken, tears dropping to the ground, Matua Manuell having his last breaths on the 10th of July 2016.
No matter what to this day he’ll never be forgotten will always be with us in our hearts and most
definitely be remembered! May he rest in paradise.

The Day in the Life of A Iron Nail

Dear Diary, iron Nail here. Today I arrived in New Zealand after a long voyage across the Pacific Ocean on the Endeavour, which was led by the great Captain Cook. After a while, when we got settled, I heard little children playing outside the  great ship and I heard men having a karakia outside on the sand. All the warriors travelled from the island to the great ship, the Endeavour. They have been given a lot of items including me and my family. We, the iron nails, have been traded for food and we were soon taken off the ship and heading to a new, strange land. Suddenly, the trading went wrong when they were exchanging the iron nails for a dog cloak. The maori people jumped off the great ship, dropped into their waka and paddled away to the shore they ran as fast as they could, trying to escape the dreadful sound ringing in their ears.  I don’t know my fate, but know we will be put to good use some day.

A Few weeks ago but i am really late on this But we have been focusing on Tuia 250 and we have a all these cards and everyone in our class got one and we had to write about it and i got a Iron Nail
So i hope you enjoy

Action World Trip

On Monday the senior syndicate attended Action World for the morning. The instructor did a small breifing explaining the rules about Action World. After that we were able to play freely doing any activity we wanted. My friend and I went to The Jousting game. I dominated the game during the start but was forced to get off to let others have a turn. That was the only activity I really did because I got the most pleasure out of it. Overall I enjoyed the trip as well as seeing kids have fun and collaborating together to accomplish what they were doing.
