Trip to Te Papa

As part of our study on Pre European New Zealand history, the Junior Syndicate travelled by bus to Te Papa.  We learnt about the early voyage to New Zealand and how the  Maori adapted to their new environment.  We went into the Maori section of the museum to see how they lived, how they built their homes (whare) and what the early canoes looked like.  Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take photos.  After a busy morning we were very hungry and certainly enjoyed our lunch outside.
