Room 6 Museum trip.

 Room 6 Museum trip. 

We had a fantastic trip to the Waikato museum this week.   Elaine, our guide, shared her knowledge about early migration to New Zealand and the voyages across the pacific.  

We got to see different types of waka and the Te Winika display ~ a warfare waka.  

Then Elaine told the story of Matariki.   

Finally we each made our own waka to take home.  We looked around us at the different cravings, each telling a story, to inspire our waka designs. 

Thank you to our parent helpers and Elaine for the fantastic trip.
