This week, the Autahi explorers headed to the waterfront for an epic morning of exploring with both our Wharewaka walking tour AND a tour of the new city library. With so much to see, hear and think about, we will be talking about this trip for weeks and drawing on it for further learning.
In the meantime, here are some highlights from our day, told through photos and the pictures the children drew to 'catch their memories' when we got back to school.
For some people, the bus was the best part of the trip.
The Wharewaka is home to several waka and they made a big impression.
It was exciting to have the chance to get up close and touch them. We learnt that one is decorated with albatross feathers, which symbolise peace.
Our memory drawings from this special day are on display in Autahi. Please come and take a look.
