Overnight at the Marae!

On Thursday our whole school went to go to Te Poho O Rawiri Marae, to stay the night. We have been practicing a powhiri, getting ready for the Marae outside for about 2 weeks. The whole of Nui went there to stay the night unless you didn't want to. They also gave you a list for all the stuff you needed to bring on the trip.

We stayed at the Marae for Thursday & Friday. Our parents dropped us of at the Marae between 8:30-8:45. For dinner we had nachos which I was SUPER excited about!When we got ready for bedtime the teachers call out room numbers so you can do whatever you need to do before bedtime.

There's two people on one mattress so that'll be fun.(More like a nightmare, the person next to you could keep you awake the whole night!) By snoring, talking to people all night, shuffling in their bed, sleep talking, etc. There's a lot of stuff they could do to keep you awake)😞 On Friday we all went back on the bus to school so we can go back home!(If you read this blog post please leave a comment)😄 This is a photo of us doing kapa haka, in front of the parents on Thursday night.
