Awesome MAHY

 Hi,

On the 20th of May, We all went on a Town trip to Margaret Mahy family park, Waka on the Avon, Victoria Square, Mats and feeding the Tuna. It was a great opportunity for tumu hub and a fun trip for all us children. I went with Mrs Carney first and we did crayon rubbing on the concrete . Then me, Korokia and Mostyn went with Mrs Bryce and looked at some mats. They were all so cool. We went back to Margaret Mahy and fed the tuna. After that we went with Miss Hanson and went on the waka and then to finish it off we went to Mrs Brown who was at Victoria Square.

My favourite part of the trip was we got to go on a waka. It was so fun and we sang Maori songs. It was so fun going on the boat and my buddy was Louka. He was a great buddy. I was on the right side of the boat and it was fine because I am ambidextrous, which is helpful. 

Something I learnt was that there were songs and stories in the Playground. We sing one of the songs with Mrs Carney and we sing pretty well. I liked that we got to go on the Playground for about 15 minutes after. 

 

The thing I found the most interesting was that there were commands for the waka. I think the Poi’s at Victoria square were very cool and the detail was great. And I think it was cool we got to go on such a great trip.

This trip has helped me with my PBL because It gave me so many good Ideas about Poi designs and songs to write. It gave me a great Idea for PBL and I think it gave everyone a great idea. 

Thank you teachers for letting us go on this trip!!!
