On Thursday 15 of June Team Tui went on a trip to do some Waka Ama. We went to Ian Shaw park in Mt Wellington which is the central location for Waka Ama teams in East Auckland. We were on a waka learning how to paddle and some of us learning how to steer the waka. It’s important for us to know this because this is how some of our ancestors came to Aotearoa, NZ.
