Margaret Mahy

Hi bloggers, I went to  Margaret Mahy playground with Tumu hub last term. We went on the bus there. Then we walked down to all the places. Then we got to do the activities and to play. We visited Victoria Square, Margaret Mahy Playground, fed the tuna and went on the waka.


My favourite part of the trip was the waka because we learnt how to row a waka in time with everyone. We also got to sing songs. It was so fun. I also liked Victoria Square because we got to learn new facts and got to look at the statues there were signs everywhere. We got to look at the kai table because kai means food and table means table so it is basically called a food 

table .


Something I learnt was that Victoria Square used to be called market square a long long time ago and they would share food and trade food they would do lots of stuff. They have a really cool statue of Queen Victoria and the other one was of Captain James Cook.


The thing I found the most interesting was the mats because they are all around the park and they all mean different things. There was also one at Victoria square that was about water and it was very cool. I learnt that all mats have a different meaning.


This trip has helped me with my PBL because I have ideas about what we can do at our school and what we could have like at victoria square there was a pou and I was thinking we could bring that idea to our school so that we are a school in ngu tahu regen and mauritius


Have you ever been to Victoria square or saw the matts at Margaret Mahy playground ?
