Last week Elgin School had a Marae Noho at Waihirere Marae. Every year we visit different marae around the region. We stayed overnight and learnt about Marae tikanga and matariki. We visited Waihirere Domain, and Eastwood Hill. Here are a few stories written by our students.

Last week Elgin school stayed the night at Muriwai Marae. Every year our school visits and learns about the different Marae around our region. Muriwai is special to us because we are friends with the children from Muriwai school. We have also learnt about Te Kuri a Paoa (Young Nicks Head) which is part of Muriwai. Here are a few stories from Room 2 tamariki about their stay at the marae.
