Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 05. 2017
- 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.
Translated into English:
We of Palmerston North Boys' High School stand steadfast
Within our Domain
Standing firm
Standing proud
Standing with respect
To uphold
To uplift
To uplift
To uphold
The prestige of our school
Our aims are to seek knowledge
And reach our goals and aspirations
Seek the horizon of aspirations
And draw near to it
Those aspirations that are near, take them
And it be known, yes, let it be known
Let your adrenalin abound high above
It is done!!!
Thank you for this
Really??
Where can I find the original lyrics for the haka?
where is the original lurics
Beautifully said!
I'd only seen Haka on Rugby pitches... Never before had I seen it being performed as a way to pay tribute to someone... Made me cry. So, so beautiful and powerful...
Danilo Rangel there’s a great haka performed by I think the same school for a teacher who retired, the entire school hall plus upper circle at back perform. That’s something else entirely.
@@nickybluechips7567 I'll definitely search for it! Thanks!
@@MrMistermastermax rugby haka simply popularised the haka. We have been doing it in our schools for a very long time.
@@apomtaylor8054 I have realized it is a traditional cultural manifestation. Too bad I wasn't able to see the Haka being performed firsthand while I was in Auckland 15 years ago. That would've been incredible, I know. But I can say I do have profound respect for it.
The way the leader slows it down then lets the boys unleash their emotion and passion is beautiful
Man made me want to do it...
The energy in this haka is insane
I feel nothing but respect for the Maori culture and the people of New Zealand after watching this.
You know what's cool. Most of those boys are European new Zealanders. Not Maori by blood at all.
In NZ everyone knows their school haka. And other haka as well :)
Palmerston North doesn't have that high a Maori population
I went to a school where I was one of about 5 maori kids and even everyone in that primary school knew their local tribes haka.
some public schools do, in most bilingual is optional. Well it was in my day. Most New Zealanders do not practice tikanga and majority of maori do not speak their own language. I grew up in multiple communities where racism was an acceptable practice.
Yo if i died and the community did this for me id feel like iv done my fare share in the society. that community shows they value each other what a nice tradition
Doing the haka makes New Zealanders special.
Doing the Haka makes everyone doing it feel as one
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 think Hakka should be the world anthem. It will bring maturity sense of understanding and care to all human beings. This tradition is full of everything.
You can hear the passion in every single student for their teacher. They should be proud of themselves.
62 years old.I am trying to learn this culture, and haka who is very special for the world respect
Learning this is easy it's our human way. Very primitive. Go with it
I'm from the UK, not sure how I got to this (You-tube surfing) but I am so glad I did. What an amazing tribute, I have seen the Haka performed on numerous occasions but never performed so passionately!!
Imagine you are a British soldier sent to the ends of the earth and these people don't want you around. Then you hear this in the middle of the night.
How can anyone give o thumb down for this beautiful farewell?!?!
This is so touching!!! What a special man he must have been. My condolence to his family and friends.
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
madworldfan123 dude seriously it's a haka for a funeral it's not all about battle ur not obviously maori if u don't know the diffeence haka is for battle chants,funerals and for welcoming get ur facts straight
and btw the war haka isn't for uping their mana it's to scare the enemy
@@solyhartley6266 Not entirely true. Every haka is intense. If you want to go watch some weak dance, you are looking at the wrong culture.
@@apomtaylor8054 Tuwharetoa te iwi Whanganui te awa and Rongatiro te manga i know haka
What a compliment, an act of utter respect for a man they obviously adored.
This HAKA has to be my favourite out of all of them! Mad respect to the bros at PNBHS
RIP Sir. You left our world too young, you will be missed.
I can’t explain the feeling I get when watching these
It's the light inside you it hears our voice
It wants to wake up it wants to care it wants to show love it wants to do the things you don't do and that's the love for everything in life all around you that is why you shear tears
What an honor 4 Mr. Jimmy Croswell's family 2 experience and witness!
WATCHING THIS, AND PAST HAKA, I AM REMINDED AGAIN, THIS IS NEW ZEALAND AOTEAROA. MANY FACES, ONE PEOPLE! AND PNBHS STUDENT PARTICIPATION DEMONSTRATES THIS. KIA KAHA KIA TOA.
Honestly, this got me in Tears. Respect All The Way From Me.
I cant stop to watch this.
This is extremely personal, I can tell...
Oh yeh~ Unlike the all blacks who just phone it in for the cameras.
@@SiggyCloud you are wrong there noway do the allblacks just do it for the cameras it's all black tradition n culture n they've done it for ova 100yrs respecting the players b4 them
Boys! Unreal! From a Wellington boy who had lived in Brisbane the last 10yrs , you have made my homesick ! Chea!
So emotional, what a lovely send off, new Zealand is a beautiful race

Vocês aceitam um brasileiro que tem vontade de acordar ao som majestosos do HAKA?
Bom trabalho
Dexei like.
Respeto, tradicion y cultura una verdadera belleza
Sending my 2 sons to palmy boys forsure 👌
Yeah I wouldn't recommend that m8. Yeah they organised this very moving haka but that isn't indicative of how the school actually functions. I went there and the teachers were toxic and racist af despite how much they seem to embrace multiculturalism. Their institution is still run by coloniser christian fundamentalism
You guys will have made Jimmy so proud with that truly inspiring send off. Thank you for sharing this with the world so those of us on other side of the world get to feel part of something so special.
No. Jimmy isn't proud. He is dead. He can't feel anything, he can't see anything.
Steven Scott stfu disrespectful piece of shit
God made me. He does not make pieces of "----".
You are, though.
Steven Scott he would be looking down on them from heaven so yes he would be very proud
WOW , !!!!!!!!!!
You've my full respect by your side .....................
Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Powerful. ❤️
Land of warriors !
Pnbhs haka is so hearty!! 💯
My sincerest condolences to the family & friends. Boys you did a fine job, I'm sure he'd have certainly been proud of the send off.
Us children of New Zealand are built different❤
I never herd of this but it’s cool to see the dance

Dit is de meest emotionele afscheidsceremonie ooit!
el HAKA me inspira
THATS WHAT YOU CALL MOTHERFUCKING HAKA BLLLAAAAAAA

Mean brothers
Ok~ For the Hord
A warning to the Gods that a good man is coming, and that they should let him in.
To the 26 dislikers, i just wanna talk to them
Don't talk to kkk people they have no balls always hiding
For a second im like "they look like angry dogs" and then i realised im from New Zealand 😂 chur to the farkin chu boys!
What’s fascinating is after that testosterone fueled display of raw masculinity, the quietly and efficiently and silently assume a disciplined orderly formation.
I would do the battle between a crowd of Men and Boys performing “Haka” and a crowd of Women and Girls performing “Un Violador En Tu Camino”
Dude, they're all roaring cause of how many they are
Exactly
Exactly
Whether there's 4 or 400, you still feel the same energy, hear the same pitch in the cries.. needs has nothing to do with it.
2:34 In honor of Jimmy Crosswell who died of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in March 2017
I would love to see US Marine infantry units perform this .....
that would be cultural appropriation unless given permission from the local iwi and are taught it properly with the correct understanding and not because they think it "looks cool"
Check out some of the NZ Military Haka . Quite a lot online to watch , farewells to fallen comrades , leaving posts to go home , welcomes etc .
I’m wondering if the priest liked it or not
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 💯👍❤
Ancient Maori are proud of modern day New Zealand
that priest is at leas level 79 to face a crowd dancing haka
Nga mihi nui PNBH nō Parorangi Hato Paora ob.
Wish we had anything in the USA that honored our natives like this. Instead we treat them like absolute shit.
From aotearoa we know
🤒Thomas Byrd
must b at Mr tamatea funeral
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.
Lets go to war bby! 💯💪
