All the patient and rowdy intermediate students jumped out of the bus at the Orakei marae.
The two classes jumped with amazement. When they were told to stand in the Mahau were they stood quietly and patiently waiting.
Then Whaea chanted the Karanga .Then the students slowly started to walk forward to the marae. Then they all went into the marae and sat down. The two whaea and Komatua Bob introduced themselves in Maori then English.
They talked about the history of the Maori. Then it was time to explore the beautiful marae. They saw the enormous Waka and the tiki house. Also the students went onto the deck were they saw parts of the one tree hill tree. Whaea told the students that the tree would be carved. And then passed onto other ancestors.
Mr Wilson and Ms Lawson to come and stand in front of the marae where they took a photo eventually called the student.
