  • On Tuesday 2 May 2017, the entire student body paid tribute to Mr Jimmy Crosswell with the school haka as he was carried from College House. Mr Crosswell was extremely proud to be a teacher at PNBHS, a College House master and was very fond of the school haka. To our students - we are so proud to have you at PNBHS and your respect for Mr Crosswell that is displayed through this haka is very moving for us.
    Mr Crosswell has been part of the PNBHS teaching staff since January 2014, and a College House Master since January 2015. As well as teaching English and Social Studies he was involved in establishing a mentoring programme for young men facing academic challenges, and had a real empathy for those students who were struggling in some aspect of school life. Mr Crosswell has been heavily involved in school co-curricular activities, especially as a cricket, rugby and rugby sevens coach, and through involvement in the outdoor education programme. As a College House Master he has been heavily involved with the young men who live there. In these capacities Mr Crosswell has had personal involvement with many young men and parents in our school community.

    5 years later and still Freaking outstanding. One of the things that unites Kiwis abroad - when you hear the haka, you know your soul comes home to Aotearoa, New Zealand. Ive heard it in China, South Korea and even in Cambodia - it still makes me think of home. USA with the Patea Maori Club with Te Reo Maori songs became hugely popular, the All Blacks with their haka, Te Reo is huge in Europe now with Alien Weaponry making it big abroad and all our artists who proudly display their art regardless of which discipline. Good on you New Zealand, Keeping it Kiwi.

      I'm sorry, dude or dudette, but a haka is not a haka without the screaming. The haka is supposed to psych up Maori warriors for battle and to give themselves mana (spiritual energy). A haka with no screaming in it is not a haka at all rather it's just a perversion. It'd be just a bunch of fools doing weird movements. You say it would be more formal without the screaming, that is absolute nonsense. I'm sorry, but it's true. Also, sometimes screaming and getting angry in a positive manner is probably one of the best ways to mourn. These kids are mourning the death of a beloved teacher. They're not going to cry (though I'm sure some of them did) but they're going to honor him in the best way NZ culture has. In summary, I think you're absolutely wrong in this scenario

      Bet you he's a fluent Maori speaker most priest in Aotearoa are. Whether; he like it or not is irrelevant; he took the challenge he stood his ground, and let it flow naturally insuring safe passage for all, In my own opinion, respect 💯👍❤

    Why is this not cultural appropriation? In the USA they have to rename sports teams who have appropriated American Indian names for their own use. The Apache have protested the use of "Apache" by the US Army. Perhaps the Kiwis have learned to live together.

      The reason your white government did that .is so you people won't find out that the government leaders are really territories to people of cultures. Blood of cultures is on American hands

    When I die, I don’t want a burial. I want a cremation and to pay at least one respect like the New Zealander’s do before that.

    Wish we had anything in the USA that honored our natives like this. Instead we treat them like absolute shit.
