7 Haka Waiata
There are various types of Haka:Peruperu is to be performed with weapons. Hard conditioning makes the warriors physically and mentally fit. Peruperu comes for the word peru "anger", and this is how it got it's name. Its psychological purpose is to demoralise the enemy, which no other form of haka can match. The outstanding feature of the Peruperu is the high leap off the ground, with the legs folded under.The Tutungarahu, is also a haka performed with weapons, but the jumping is not up and down, but rather from side to side.The Whakatuwaewae, is a haka with weapons, but does not have any jumping.haka without set actions (ngeri) including kaiorora, which enables the venting of angerHaka Taparahi - ceremonial haka -
8 moki
Latridopsis ciliaris (Moki trumpeter)<BLUEMOKI.JPG">Average size 55-70cmWeighing 2-3kg, but can grow up to 10kgOccurs all around New Zealand and southern Australia.Blue moki has a deep compressed body, moderate sized head and mouth with thick fleshy lips, small paired fins. Large scales. Blue-gray above, with several dark bands, silver-grey on flanks, white below. Distributed all around New Zealand but most common around the South Island, and from Cape Runaway to Hawkes Bay to depths of 100m. Taken mainly by trawling and set nets. Caught all year round. A small resource, perhaps yielding 1000 tonnes per annum. Of all related species occurring in New Zealand, trumpeter is a small commercial resource, and copper moki is uncommon. The red moki, in the related family Cheilodactylidae, is common but threatened because it is a very slow-growing species. -

10 wheki
dicksonia squarrosa (nz tree fern/Rough Tree Fern/ brown tree fern)<DICKSONIA squarrosa.jpg">Grows to 7mSlender trunk covered with black peg-like fallen fronds. No skirt of dead fronds. Very common.<WHEKI.JPG">The fronds are up to 3 m long and they are very harsh. The stems on the fronds are also very rough. The top side of the fronds are dark green while underneath they are paler. Dead leaves are an orange-brown colour. Technically Ponga is the Maori word for all tree ferns, but it is most commonly applied to the d.squarrosa, as this is the fern from which we get ponga logs. The fronds are smaller than the Mamaku, but have a similar horizontal arching habit, which gives an umbrella like appearance. This tree fern produces new fronds right throughout the year, so it always has a lush, healthy look.<DICKSONIA2 squarrosa.jpg"> -
