Toku Mihi

Here is a format for mihi which we are learning at the moment:
Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena koutou katoa,

Ko Aoraki te maunga (mountain - Mt Cook)
Ko Waimakariri te awa (river)
Ko Clarke toku ingoa whanau (family name)
Ko Noel toku papa (father)
Ko Margaret toku mama (mother)
Ko Rob toku ingoa (my name)
No Otautahi ahau (city - Christchurch)
Ko Fendalton toku kura (School)

No reira.
Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena koutou katoa.
