Waitangi Maori Canoes






We went on a tour with Ngati Kawa and Mrs Brown.
We went on a bush walk that was about ten seconds. When we got to the other side there was a bunch of waka .
There was a huge waka and three small ones.
The huge waka could fit 120 people in it that's quite big - I mean huge.
We all saw the tree that the waka was made out of. We sat on the trunk of the tree and all of us fitted quite easly. We had a photo and then we all went to the small waka.There was one in the middle one on the right and one on the left.
We lifted the waka. Ngati kawa said "He" and we said "Hi"then lifted it.
We went down to the beach and Joanna pretended to be Mrs Busby and some other kids from school welcomed her.
Then we went for another walk and saw a huge flag pole.It had a New Zealand flag , trading flag and a British flag.
