School Trip to Hukanui Marae

Look at all the carvings and artwork at the entrances and inside the Wharenui.

We enjoyed going into the Wharenui with the Kowhai team. We listened to stories and saw the carvings and artwork inside.

Our Bus Trip to Hukanui Marae

Afterwards we had a discussion about our trip. We talked about what we saw and how we felt. We wrote a story together.

We went on a trip to Hukanui Marae.  We went on a big green bus.  Sometimes the bus went fast and sometimes the bus went slow.  The wind was rushing past the windows as we travelled.  

We saw farms and cows and horses.  We saw lots of trees.  We saw hills and mountains in the distance far far away.  The bus ride was smooth and bumpy too. We heard lots of noises and the loud motor was humming.  

Our bus driver was a nice old man with snowy white hair. Room 16
