Outrage in Hinckley as Native students barred from performing traditional song at graduation

1. This was my experience as well

When my younger daughter graduated from her high school, except for the academic recognitions in English, the program was conducted in the local language, even though only a quarter of the students spoke it well. The girls did a traditional dance to traditional indigenous music, while the boys did one in Maori, which is apparently related, linguistically.
