Our Heritage
Turangawaewae - A place to stand.
"I am a strong learner when I know who I am, where I am from and what my place is in my world."
In Room 8 we talked about where we were born and where our family is from. It was fun learning about each other and sharing all about our families. We found out that some of us were born overseas and some of us speak a different language at home.

Our trip to Te Tahawai Marae
Room 8 and Room 10 had a fantastic time at Te Tahawai Marae. We learnt all about the tukutuku patterns that are displayed around the room inside the marae. We found out that they tell a story just like books do in the library.
The name Te Tahawai comes from the meaning - edge of the water. That is why the school is named Edgewater College.
We had a great time drawing our own koru and kowhaiwhai patterns.
