Waitangi trip

Did you know that this year marks the 250 year since the Europeans came to New Zealand? For the past two days we have been spending our days at Waitangi treaty ground learning about the past when the Europeans came to NZ. 

My favourite part was when we got to tutu around with the devices Eg Robot dogs,Stop motion, VR, Ipad's and Chromebooks. My less favourite part was to not see everything that first group seen  when they when on there hikoi.

Cultural festival

Two week's ago our school held a Southern Bay of island Cultural festival day. We had 3 schools and 2 Kohanga such as Pahia, Maromaku, Waikare, Kawakawa Kohanga, Te Mirumiru and Moerewa Kohanga. Every school had to perform and item it could be Kapa haka and Waka huia. I enjoyed performing in hola and Kapa haka because hola was a very different item I've done in my life. Then there is Kapa haka I wasn't really nervous to perform in front of other schools because in kapa haka my whole life. The easy part: Was to perform in front of every school. The hard part: Was trying to get everyone ready for there performance.
