Kia Ora whanau,
(collabration of our day)
Today we went to a Marae. (Rawiri)
When we went to the marae we saw ancestors and the Tekoteko, he is on top of the Marae so he can see everybody! (Shae-Leigh)
At the marae we saw Paua shells on the carvings - they use it for the eyes of the carvings/ancestors. (Achazia). They felt smooth (Montana).
At the marae there was a photo of the Maori princess. Her name was Te Puea Herangi.
She is beautiful. (Marcella)
Inside the marae it was red, white, and brown. (Ariki) and the carvings were ontop of eachother. (Cash).
There were heaps of maori patterns and tukutulu panels. (Omar)
Outside the marae there were heaps of patterns and a lot of warriors. (Hunter)
Also outside the marae we saw a warrior and he was holding a paddle. (Hare-Pita)
After, we went to the wharekai, this is where we go to eat our kai (Layton).
We all had heaps of fun today!
Thank you to Mr Heremaia-Graham and Mr Barrett for organising our trip and thank you to our parents who came with us.
Check out some of our photos.
Haere ra,
Ruma 25
