Marae Visit

On Wednesday 25th May, Room 19 had a visit at  Tangatarua Marae, Waiariki.

We learnt all about the different features of the wharenui at the marae and that it was a marae to represent all cultures where we all belonged.

While we were there the girls learnt a beautiful poi song and the boys learnt a strong haka.

We also made flax flowers that were extremely tricky but the end 
product was fabulous.

Last but not least we all sketched our favourite carvings and panels that we found in the wharenui.
