Rāpaki Marae day trip.

Rāpaki Marae day trip.

This term, we went on a day trip to Rapaki Marae. When we arrived, we were welcomed onto the marae with a traditional pōwhiri. We sang E Te Tau to the mana whenua of the marae.

During the trip, I learnt that at the beach there is warm water. My favourite part about the marae visit was the beach because I found warm water. The most challenging part of the day was when we had to leave because it was fun. Overall, my experience was great.

Resilience: I showed resilience when I sang E Te Tau.

Integrity: I showed integrity when I went to the beach.

Success: I felt successful when I made it to the beach.

Empathy: I showed empathy by listening carefully.
