Our school visited Waimapu Marae, where students had the opportunity to learn more about Marae Protocol and Tikanga Maori. We were welcomed on with a powhiri and our local kaumatua shared many stories with us. He spoke about  significant places and iwi, the history of the Marae, historic events and our school's connection to the Marae.
