Waiata on top of Ruapekapeka

Room 6 had a Noho marae where we stayed at school for the night in the school marae. We went for a visit to our maunga Ruapekapeka. We have been learning about the history and the war that happened here. Before we left we sung a song as the sun was setting.

  1. WOW room 6 that brought tears to my eyes! You sound absolutely beautiful and what an amazing setting to sing your waiata in. I can just imagine your ancestors many years ago singing at Ruapekapeka Pa just like you. What do you think would have been different back then? Would they have been wearing the same clothes? Eating the same food?
