Tivaevae visit during Cook Island Language Week

Mei taki to McKenzye's mum Haley for bringing her family heirloom tivaevae in to show us. It was amazing to see the beautiful stitching and to learn about why and how the tivaevae are made.  

We noticed how the patterns used lots of natural shapes and that they were also symmetrical. Can you see where the symmetry lines are in the design?

Thank you for also sharing a traditional dance with us. The movements were so graceful to watch.
