Whare hauora Blessing
Panmure Bridge School is the home of New Zealand's first medicube. The purpose of this new building is to make sure that children are fit for school and that they get a sense of focus so that they do not worry about getting sick. Our nurses will carry on doing a good job and making sure we are alright for school. Like every new building at Panmure Bridge School the Maori blessing took place early in the morning and as we are in kapa haka we were asked to perform an item and represent our school. Our song was He Honore which was a nice soft song that we sang to with just an acoustic guitar. We were all proud of our efforts and it was a honour to partake in this event. The Kaumatua went around the medicube blessing the building in Maori. We all followed the visitors into the medicube looking at the space the health nurses are fortunate to receive.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful development for PBS here on your blog. This sounds like a great initiative. What a special occasion to be part of the Kapa Haka group for. Did anyone video you? I would enjoy seeing that.
