EOTC- Education outside the classroom
28Th of November the year 8s had gathered up to go to a Marie located in the city of Christchurch all the year 8s had been split up into 3 groups 22 of us went into 2 spirit vans and 56-60 of us went into the bus. When we arrived at the Marie we wore greeted by a girl singing and as she sang we came closer and closer to her when we got to the door of the Marie we took our shoes off and put them on the right side of the door because its a sign of respect. when we ented the Marie the girls sat at the back and the boys sat at the front of the girls we do this because if a dude comes in with a weapon the boys can protect the girls.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading about our trip to the marae on your blog. I can tell that you were paying attention as you included some very specific details. Also I can see that you listed when Matua spoke with us about how we are supposed to sit when we are inside the marae.
A suggestion would be to check your spelling of 'marae' :) You could also include the group photo to show your readers where we all went!
