Have you ever been to the maritime museum? well on Wednesday the 17th of June piwakawaka went to the maritime museum in the city. Our bus journey was so long. We notice a lot of things during this ride like massive big buildings the long sky tower and the long tunnels. I almost took a nap it was like you were in space.
First, when we arrived at our location I could already see such beautiful things that were around me such as the sparkly blue ocean and a lot more I was so hyped to get started. Me and my friends were jumping up and down cause we can’t wait to see all the beautiful things and do some cool activities.
Next, we went into this room There were two amazing staff members whose names were Lee and Niki. We had to split off into groups and the first group that went to explore the museum was group 2. And group 1 stayed behind and played a game where you have to go north,east,south and west in Maori, North is Raki south is Tonga East whitinga west is tomokanga. we learn where Polynesians travel around the world. They travel to Tonga Fiji Samoan cook island and other more in the pacific ocean. And we got to make our own little boat with the blocks they had at the place. And we had so much fun.
Then, we completed all of them we waited for the other group to come back then we could explore the museum I was so excited to start. A few minutes later they came back and I saw my other friends that were in group 2 and then they told me all about what they saw and what they saw . Then me and one of my friends named sienna headed off to our group so we could go and explore the museum like a detective. We were getting started at the front deck and we got told that we had to stay with the teacher or else we will get lost in the museum.
Afterward we split off and started me and my friend were so shocked when we both took one big step we could already see such beautiful things When I walked through. cool old things that people used back in the old days and lots more . My friend sienna and I went to go and explore and we saw this little shop it was so cute it looked like a mini cafe we took some pictures inside and we had so much fun. while being there we saw a lot more cool stuff we even saw all the big sale boats and took some photos with them. My favorite part I saw was the bunk beds they looked scary but also interesting to look at.
finely we all got to see a cannon fire shoot out from a paper. The shot was as loud as someone screaming so loud. now we all meet in the front room so we can leave the museum and we said a big thank you to Lee and Niki for teaching us where Polynesian travel around the pacific ocean.
