Noho marae

Our first week back after the holidays saw us taking part in the first noho marae for the year.  We stayed at school and had afternoon tea, and then we left for an adventure up on Ruapekapeka Pa.  We had been learning in class the purpose of Pa, and a little of what happened in the battle of Ruapekapeka.  Then when we got back to school, we had dinner and dessert and played games.  We slept over and had competitions as to who could snore the loudest.  Mrs Norman was not the winner, but we won't say who was!
