Marae Noho Term 2

On Wednesday the year 5 and 6’s had the chance to sleep at Pipitea Marae!

When the rest of the school left we had the chance to play outside and get changed. Straight after we got to do some jobs and have a quick snack.

After that, we went into groups with 2 parents and went on a scavenger hunt around Wellington! It was an adventure finding out about some of the history of places in Te Whanganui a Tara. When everyone got back to the Marae, we had some games like pukana and then had dinner and played outside (again).

When everyone left all the kids had a game of spotlight!

After all the fun and excitement, everyone went to bed. In the morning when everyone was awake, we had breakfast, got changed out of our pajamas and did a big clean up together. We had a poroporoaki (farewell) and then headed back to school.

It was a really wonderful experience and we had so much fun while we were there.
