The River Talks - Ko au te awa, ko te awa ko au!

Last Friday, we walked with Room 9 to Point England Reserve to attend The River Talks - presented by MAD AVE.  A community group based in Glen Innes.  We enjoyed learning about the health of our awa while enjoying some of the artists present their work.  We watched dances, listened to poems and drums, viewed artworks, and learned from people from our council and students from the local kura kaupapa Māori.

Here are some key photos and video from the day:

You can read how students in Room 10 felt about the experience by reading their reflections - some have been linked below:
