Arahura marae

In Te Hiringa this week on Tuesday we went to Arahura Marae  and did a powhiri a powhiri is a welcome on a Marae that  the manawhenua (the people who own the marae or it's there tribe)
sit on the other side of us and do a speech like to say welcome and hello and then after they sing a waiata (song) and Mutua T told us a story of Te Wai Potini and I like the part when we had Kai (food).

  1. Kia ora Rodeshar, it's Abbie here from Mamaku 2.

    This reminds me of when I went to that marae too! My favourite part was listening to the stories about the chiefs.

    I really like how you included the name of the marae.

    What was your favourite food and favourite story from there?

    Bye from Abbie

    I really like how you have given a detailed description so people feel like they were there. Have you been there before? Next time you could change the font so it is easier to read. What was your favourite food from the Marae?

  3. Hello Rodeshar, It's Caitlyn here from T3. That's good you had fun at the Marae with your friends, class, teacher. What do you think would have been your favourite part, about going to the Marae? Were you nervous, when you did your Mihi? What was your favourite kind of savouries? I like the potato top, one with the mince in it. It's so yum..... (: Thanks for Sharing, Rodeshar. From Caitlyn, Totara 3 Grey Main School.
