On Tuesday the 7th of August some classes in my school went to visit Arahura Marae. First we got welcomed in with a powhiri. Once we were inside and we had listened to speeches we sang Te Aroha and they sang something too. Then we all shook hands and did a hongi. After that a man told us a Maori story, it was around lunch so we had morning tea. He blessed the food with a karakia. We had lots of kai to choose from. After we had food it was raining so we went back inside and they told us about all of carvings . It was a great experience and I would like to go back there again.
