On the 29th of July, we were visited by the Rosehill College Band from New Zealand and had an interactive concert with them in the Dewan Bro. Phillipe Wu. But during their visit there was more than just music from them, we were treated to a performance of the traditional Maori dance; The Haka. The Haka is an ancestral dance performed by Maori tribes before they went to battle. The dance incorporates aggressive movements and loud chanting used to intimidate their enemies before their battles. But it was made internationally famous by the New Zealand national rugby team, The All Blacks who perform it before each of their matches.
