Kia Ora Readers!
Welcome back to my blog post! Sorry for the late post but here is the new one! This blog is about the Koru and the Kowhaiwhai!
Koru are all around New Zealand. Koru is a Māori word for " loop " It's a spiral shape. Koru is a symbol of a new life, growth, strength and peace. Pongas grow wild. They are found in damp bush areas in Parks, in New Zealand. The Koru shape is most likely found in designs of a Kowhaiwhai pattern. Kowhaiwhai are mostly red, white and black. Kowhaiwhai designs are mostly found in the ceilings of the Māori meeting house. Kowhaiwhai represents the Māori history or the Māori family tree of the tribe.
Here is a picture of a Koru!
Thank you for reading this blog post and have a great day!
