Corban Estate Arts Centre Trip
Wednesday 23rd November 2016.
On Wednesday our class was very excited about visiting the Arts Centre and meeting the Pacific Mamas! We had a great time learning greetings from some of the Pacific Islands, including Niue, Hawaii, Fiji, Samoa and Rarotonga. We learnt that the way we greet others shows our respect and care for them (hopefully we were already pretty good at this)!
Once we had greeted each other warmly, Room 22 and Room 23 went into different rooms to learn how to drum, dance and create our own beautiful lei necklaces.
We had an amazing time exploring the Pacific culture, celebrations, and also learned more about the way that drums were used to communicate across the island villages. It was fun trying out the dances and drum rhythms and great to see the parents and children getting involved!
Thank you to everyone who came along with us. We really appreciate your support.
Here are The Mamas! ALOOOOOOOOHHAAA!
Great effort boys!

It took a little while, but we got the hang of it!
