In the education system of New Zealand, a wānanga is a publicly owned tertiary institution that provides education in a Māori cultural context. Section 162 of the Education Act 1989 (re-affirmed by the Waitangi Tribunal in 2005) specifies that wānanga resemble mainstream universities in many ways. As of 2009, wānanga offer certificates, diplomas, and bachelor-level degrees, with some wānanga providing programmes in specialized areas up to doctorate level.
Wānanga educational programmes, accredited through the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) and through the Ministry of Education, are partly governed by New Zealand's Tertiary Education Commission (TEC).
Outside the formal education system, the word wānanga conveys meanings related to highly evolved knowledge, lore, occult arts, and also "forum" - in the sense of a discussion to arrive at deeper understanding.
[Intro:]
Oohhhh
I just have to say
It's a lovely day
Nothing be can go out of love
Yeahhh
[Chorus:]
Everything 's gonna be alright so fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
Everything's gonna be ok
So fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
[Verse 1:]
Stormy clouds are gone away
The sun shines bright today
And I have to say
It's a lovely day
The kids they come out to play
People singing songs of melody
As they go about their way
The words of the song may some say
[Chorus:]
Everything 's gonna be alright so fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
Everything's gonna be ok
So fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
[Verse 2:]
Hey you
What are you worrying about
What are you turning twisting and starring about
You got love
Then there's none not not worry about
Continuing with your business going about
I want to hear you sing and shout
Don't hold back now
Please let the words come out
I love to see when the birds come out
All those skettels? come out
Singing
[Chorus:]
Everything 's gonna be alright so fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
Everything's gonna be ok
So fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
[Verse 3:]
I feel love in the atmosphere
I feel joy everywhere
Oh I can see so clear no despair
Oh ah everybody singing
[Chorus:]
Everything 's gonna be alright so fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine
Everything's gonna be ok
So fine so fine
So come on don't you worry your mind
So fine so fine so fine
[Verse 1]
