Our visit to Hukanui Marae


We enjoyed our trip to Hukanui Marae last week. We travelled there in a bus, then were welcomed on to the marae, listened to speakers, saw the children from the Kohanga Reo perform a song, and got to visit the wharenui. 















Afterwards, we had morning tea and played games, then watched our Kapa Haka group perform, before we went back to school again in the bus.





Thank you, Whaea Robyn, for arranging our trip!
