Our visit to Hukanui Marae 2018


Hamilton East School spent a morning at 
Hukanui Marae Gordonton.
What a fabulous day we had. 
We were welcomed with a traditional Powhiri
led by children from Pipiwharauroa Kohanga Reo.

We were led on by Kaumatua Boson
Tangata Whenua welcomed our school in the traditional manner.
We got to see inside the Wharenui (meeting house) 
and hear stories about Hukanui Marae.

Our Kapa Haka performed with mana (prestige) as a parting farewell.
