Last Friday I went to Maraka School for Aurora Drama it was really fun. I got picked to do the drama program with Ella and Klara, we learnt a lot about Whirikoka and his seal Oioi. We got on a bus and went to a pā site in Whatatutu. The owner lived in the place where Whirikoka lived, the owner Marcus lived in the Marae and was rebuilding the pā on a hill to how it looked when the Maori tribe lived there. Marcus let us go in the fire pit and huts he said he had been working on it for six years, he said was going to make a natural swimming pool with a water fall and a slide with a statue of Oioi. I loved it and the food was delicious they made bacon and egg pies and donuts. We're doing a play about Whirikoka. I can't wait till next week.
