Nga mihi to our Mayor Meng Foon for sharing his whakapapa, his history, his stories and what the future holds for our tamariki.
A fantastic insight into the journey taken by our ancestors to Turanganui a kiwa, the amazing navigation skills used so long ago, the pre arrival of Cook, the changes to what we now call Gisborne and what the immediate future holds.
A wonderful opportunity for our kids to ask some great questions around our Early Settlers unit and being able to make those links to their learning. Today you were great ambassadors for Gisint, Turanganui and yourselves.
We know you made a great impression on the Mayor and on us.
Ka Mau te Wehi....Awesome!
