BIGGER, BRIGHTER AND FULL OF FLAVOUR – HAA IS BACK ON MĀORI TELEVISION!
The crew from youth show HAA is back on Māori Television, and this season they’re upping the ante – every Monday to Saturday at 6.30 PM.
As in previous years, viewers still get the inside track on the latest and hottest news, views and interviews. The show is still fun, high-energy – and a must-see guide on what’s happening within youth culture in New Zealand-Aotearoa.
But this time round, the weekday shows are entirely in te reo Māori – only the Saturday show will stick to last season’s bilingual format. “Viewers will get a daily dose of the Māori language on HAA,” says producer Wiremu Te Kiri.
The new series reflects the interests of youth through a range of specially-designed segments. Youth events are the bread and butter of Kimihia Te Haa and Haka, from kapa haka to festivals and competitions. Famous faces and outstanding rangatahi are interviewed in Tangata Toa; Waha Papaa reveals what’s new in youth culture; Haerenga finds out what rural youth get up to; and Kura invites schools to submit their own stories.
But wait – there’s more! Whacky facts about local and international artists and musicians are the focus in Puoro. Learn new dance moves in Urban Kanikani; travel the world with Travel Diaries; and check out Komeke for the latest on new and old comics. “HAA has always given rangatahi a voice and platform to reflect what is important in their lives,” says producer Wiremu Te Kiri. “That will continue to be the focus.”
Coming up this week: highlights from Secondary School Waka Ama Championship 2008; horse riding with a rangatahi on the East Coast and an interview with producer and musician Recloose on the release of his new album ‘Perfect Timing’.
The presenters are a mix of new and old faces. Kimo Houltham (Ngaiterangi, Te Arawa) is back to lead the team which includes newcomers Naomi Bradfield (Ngāti Porou), Nicole Douglas (Te Arawa, Ngāti Porou) and Jay Wanakore (Ngāti Maniapoto). Field reporter Sarah-lina Brown (Cook Islands) also returns for her second year.
