Doing a haka to honor and respect someone who has passed leaves you shaking, you feel everyone's pain, sorrow, love and anger around you, you become one and grieve and respect together, you express so many emotions at once with every cry and move you do. At least this is how I felt when doing one like this, left so much adrenaline and emotion after, I hadn't felt something like it before then, those students gave so much respect and passion it's crazy, it gives me goosebumps
Thank you all for the beautiful, passionate, and heartfelt farewell to Tom, you made his last day on earth memorable for his family! love and respect from USA
They have no respect cos the education system permits them to be disrespectful. A teacher scan discipline a child can’t even say a word to the child regardless of what they do. Being African decent I was shocked to see kids act the way they do in schools in the UK. Totally lacking in discipline. Talk back to teachers. Anyway the teachers these days just want to job security and pay cheque they don’t care about the children’s learning either
@Jake Frontera I don't know much about how it goes with kids in the US. Here in France, children often forget about being polite and respectful and it's a pity. I'm not that old (56) and my sons say good morning good bye please thank you and never forget to cancel an appointment. It seems rare nowadays.
Rest in Love Tom your memories and legacy will be treasured. I'm one of the fortunate ones that you had impacted during my years at SHC. 🙏😭💔 Love and prayers to you and your family from 180 000,000kms away 🔵🔴
Condolences on your loss. Thank you for posting. The beauty of life is not what you do yourself but what you give back to others. Obviously he gave a lot back. Most beautiful thing all day.
Life is too short....look for the meaning of true life- you’ll find it when you search with all your heart and soul much love to this school and condolences to the whanau❤️🔥🙏🏼
Respect boys that was so heart touching, made me cry.. R.I.P to ur fallen friend.... the Haka was well done... I'm proud to call myself a kiwi... I love new Zealand and Maori culture 100% Respect boys
Just listening to these individuals who are participating in this phenomenal HAKA, I could hear the raw emotions that poured out of them! I got goosies everywhere on my body!
Que lindo! Que homenagem espetacular feita a um professor. É muito emocionante ver o quanto os alunos se sentem honrados por ter tido aquele homem com seu mestre. Infelizmente, em algumas partes do mundo, esse profissional é tão desrespeitado.
Love and respect. Our young men somewhere along the way think it’s a race to the end of the Haka. A slower pace with with shaper movements draw more emotion. Ka Pai.
@@marie-heleneallesiardi4989 - Ratana is not a culture... It is a religious practice. A practice that should not be acceptable in the realms of a so-called ‘Catholic’ school.
The haka is a powerful expression of respect in MZ Maori culture - many people understand this, or are moved by this demonstration of high regard from 1000 boys, students of this much- loved teacher .
that’s because there are so many different ones written for different meanings. My teacher and i wrote one together for a project to perform with my school
It needs prayers every time Regardless of any religion a definitive emphasize of God a universal prayer must be impose and different prayers . Catholic,Christian ,Jew,Muslim,Hindu.
POV: They need to slow their haka down. They're rushing it. Follow the lead of your Kaitataki Tane (Leader). The mana of the haka your performing needs that respect. Slow it down and see/hear/feel how much more Powerful it becomes.
Meaningless? Emotion is evoked from sound also. From body language. From tone. If you cannot read those three things but need it spelled out to you, despite the title of the video, that is sad.
