On the 20th of May 2021 Tumu went to Margaret Mahy Family Playground. There were four activities, learning about the playground markings with Mrs Carney, seeing the mats around the playground and feeding the tuna with Mrs Bryce, riding the waka up and down the awa with Miss Hansen and we also went to Victoria Square with Mrs Brown.
My favourite part of the trip was riding the waka because I got soaked and also it was fun working as a team.
Something I learnt was that there is a whole story around Margaret Mahy and I didn't even know.
The thing I found the most interesting was that Victoria Square has heaps of art works made out of wood and stone.
This trip has helped me with my PBL because I learnt about the culture before me and the Māori. For PBL I am going to make a poster with a waka and a saying.
Have you ever been to Margret Mahy Playground?
