Summer Learning Journey

The fist settlers to come to New Zealand must have brave! They had to leave their original homes and sail thousands of miles across the ocean on a special boat called a waka to reach New Zealand. To this day people of New Zealand still use waka's. Instead of using their waka to transport them from a place to another, they sometimes use waka's in special events like sports such as Waka Ama. Waka Ama is where boys and girls can compete in competition's.
