Last Friday, the Year 4 Syndicate visited Te Hana Te Ao Marama. We were welcomed onto the marae followed by a whaikorero (speeches) then some kai. We were then escorted through to the traditional Maori village. It felt as though we were back in time...back in the 1800's. Mr Werder was challenged by the rangatira (chief) and kindly accepted the wero (a fern) on our behalf. The syndicate walked around the marae/pa and were entertained by a kapa haka group. The children responded to the group with a waiata. Prior to leaving, we all said a karakia (prayer). What a fantastic day!!! A special thank you to the parents/caregivers who assisted with supervision and transportation. Tino pai everyone.
