Rākau





Hei aha ngā rākau? - What are rākau?
There are many different variations of using rākau. Traditionally, tī rākau (stick games) were played with both men and women. Participants generally formed two rows opposite one another and threw and caught rākau in time to a chant.

Here is Room 7 using rākau. We had a lot of fun learning a traditional Māori stick game.
