Today Zana from the SLJ team commented on my Kowhaiwhai patern blog post.

Zana said Kia Ora Hector,

My name is Zana and I am a blog commenter from the Summer Learning Journey.

I thought this activity was very interesting as it teaches you about Tānerore who you are able to see often on these hot summer days and about the infamous kowhaiwhai pattern seen throughout Māori culture.

Your Kowhaiwhai pattern looks unique and awesome and the colors you used are very accurate to that seen in other Kowhaiwhai patterns. It is great that you used google drawing, I can imagine it was quite fun to use all the different shapes and tools to create this.

I would like to know if you have seen the Kowhaiwhai patterns before and if so when? I know I have seen them in a museum and I also made them at school to hang on the roof beams.

Keep up the great work and I hope to see more of your posts over the summer.

Ngā mihi nui,
Zana Yates

I don't know what I am repeating in my Kowhaiwhai patern but I am trying to repeat a wave.
