The Year 7/8 Trip To Wellington



Two weeks ago our principal, Mrs Lindsay gave the year 7 & 8 students the opportunity to go to Wellington for a week. First, we travelled from Paihia to the Auckland Airport, from there we flew to Wellington. We drove our hired vans to the Te Herenga Waka Marae where we settled in. I really enjoyed staying at the marae because of the carvings that were embedded on the marae walls. Each and every carving represented different tribes from up north to down south. We weren’t given the opportunity to learn about each carving but I still enjoyed admiring the detail in them and the stories they all told. Lastly, I would love to say thank you to Mrs Lindsay for letting us see and do what we did during the week with you. Nga mihi.
