NCEA L3 Te Ao Haka
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Whaea D. Day.
At Level 8, ākonga refine their analysis of Te Ao Haka and their performance abilities. You become more confident to effectively express narrative and embody narrative meanings in your performance, learning about the influence of time, space and context on performance. A willingness to engage with te reo Māori narratives in te reo Māori or via translation is important to achieving success in this course. Ākonga explore the connections between Te Ao Haka disciplines, mātauranga Māori and the life skills Te Ao Haka develops in performers looking at the benefits for themselves, others, and Te Ao Māori. Year 13 ākonga will develop leadership skills and become effective tuākana in the multi-year NCEA Te Ao Haka class. The course is likely to be multi-level with NCEA 1 & 2 ākonga.
