Learn
We are learning about the ANZACS and ANZAC day.
This is an important part of the history of New Zealand as a country, and our history with Australia. Many Māori fought for our country as powerful warriors.
Share
We will share our scavenger hunt puzzle on our blogs.
We've all visited a marae, but do we know the all the ways a marae works? The roles and people? The names of the parts of our marae? In te reo?
We are learning about our marae and the tangata (people) who are the heart of it.
