On Friday the 2nd of November we went to the Marae. Once we were welcomed on some people did the hongi with the speakers from the marae. We did greetings. We listened to singing and saw people dancing. We played some games. We had a competition to make the best koru out of the cut grass. There were two winners from the competition, one from Room 6 and one from Room7. We all crowded around the hangi pit to see them dig it up. When the hangi was dug up it smelt quite bad from the wet sacks and the leaves. Some of the hangi food got a little burnt because it got too hot by the stones. Most people had the hangi for lunch. The hangi tasted great!
