Summer Learning Journey Day 3 Activity 2

In this activity I had to write my pepeha...

Ko Worcester, England ahau
Ko Heather rāua ko Paul ōku mātua  
Ko Harrison tōku ingoa.

I don't know how to answer the other ones so I just removed them.

If you get stuck ask your parents (Remember, it doesn’t have to be exact :)
Mountain: Which is the closest mountain to where you were born?
River – River Severn which I see is in Worcester. Otherwise you could use a NZ river. E.g. Waikato
Waka – I used Air New Zealand as my waka because it is how I arrived to New Zealand for the first time.
Ancestor – Who was the person who discover Worcester? Or New Zealand?
Tribes: Your main tribe is your last name, your sub tribe could be your family’s other last name. If you don’t know, you can use your middle name instead.
Marae: Have you ever been for a Marae for a school trip? If so, insert that name. Otherwise you could google a marae close to your school.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. :)

Keep up the great work Harrison!

Cadence :)
