Yesterday Good Shepherd School went to the Unitice Marae. We got welcomed on by Whaea Lynda. She was a really good singer. We had to take our shoes off before we went in. We met Papa Hau and he told us a story about one of the stories of the carvings. The story was about a man who wanted to come to New Zealand. But the others didn't want him on the waka because he had a bad knee. He was sad but then a stingray came and said hop on. He couldn't believe it. He hopped on and came to New Zealand. When he finished the story. We went and had a yummy morning tea. We went bake in the Marae and learnt a song and hand coordinations counting to seven in Maori. Then we went outside and the boys did an amazing haka. Here are a few photos from the trip.
