Stewart Island is a great place

Kahu has had a good look around Stewart Island. Here are some places he visited.

Kahu's Friend

Do you know the name of the bird that visited Kahu this morning? We gave it some bread but we have now bought some apples to feed it.

Kahu arrived safely

It was a very bumpy crossing on the ferry but once we got nearer to Stewart Island the sea  was calmer. Kahu visited Halfmoon Bay School to join a Te Reo Maori lesson. The kaiako taught Te Reo Maori online.  The tamariki learn very similar phrases to us and know lors of waiata. They play guitar and ukelele to accompany the waiata. They learn music from the same kaiako through the virtual learning network.  Kahu also listened to the Halfmoon Bay School rock band ... tumeke!

In the first picture Kahu was being held by a tama also called Kahu.

Kahu is going to Stewart Island

Kahu is having his next holiday in Stewart Island before going to the Noho Marae on Friday.  He is watching freight bring loaded onto the ferry. He wonders if Fouveux Straight will be rough this morning...

There a lots of police and soldiers with guns in France.

We have seen many police and soldiers carrying machine guns in the towns we have visited in France. They are trying to keep people safe from terrorist threats.

Kahu has seen lots of playgrounds in France like we have in NZ

Mrs Booth did not want to go up in this. It would be a good view though.
