Ata mārie !!!
What a great morning we had at Hukanui marae on Monday.
Special thank you to the helpers who could make the trip with us.
Firstly we were welcomed with a powhiri and we sang a song called E hara in response. Then we got to sit inside the wharenui and look at all the beautiful tukutuku pannels. The kaumatua told us lots of stories about Hukanui.
Next we ate morning tea and sketched kowhaiwhai patterns on the gateway.
After a run around and a fantastic kapahaka performance from our school we took the bus ride back to school which is always a big highlight (for the kids).
Waiting outside to be called through.
