Learning About Nga Motu

We were lucky enough to have Olivia's Dad Billy come in to talk to us this week about Nga Motu (the islands). Billy works on the boats and takes 1000s of people out around the Bay every year, telling them the history and information about Nga Motu so we were very fortunate that he could come and share his knowledge with us. He told us lots of interesting facts and legends about the islands. Thanks Billy ! After Billy's talk we worked together to make our own ocean, complete with islands and all our self portraits floating around them. Come into Nga Motu and have a look at our fantastic mural next time you are at school.

  2. We live in a lovely place, its great that both kids and parents can appreciate how special are the Islands we are in charge of looking after. I hope we can invite more parents to tell more stories. We all love a good story don't we?
