On Wednesday Room16
visited the Parklands Library. We were
read a story about how Paua got his colourful shell from Tangaroa. Then we had some time to look around the
excellent range of books that the Library has to offer.
After a little while the
wonderful librarians Jenna and Sam worked with our students to make porotiti, a
traditional maori string instrument.
Made from a cardboard circle with two holes in it and string, the
students decorated them with felts using traditional maori symbol
stencils.
We had lots of fun spinning
them on our walk back to school. A huge
thanks to the friendly staff at the Parklands Library.
