CPI Plurilingüe Virxe da Cela

Poi is a traditional Maori item from New Zealand used for dancing.

In the past they were also used for training to use weapons.

In the Arts and Crafts class, students could learn about this tradition watching some interesting videos.

And they had the opportunity to make a simple version of poi out of wool, newspaper, plastic bags and tape.

The aim was to teach the students more about New Zealand culture and history in a practical way that got them involved in the lesson.

All the students seemed to enjoy the class, especially learning the dance at the end.
