Kia Ora Diego,
ReplyDeleteKa pai for completing your pepeha, I must say that this is the most extensive pepeha that I've seen from all students across every cluster in New Zealand. You should be really proud of yourself for knowing so much about your pepeha.
I've spotted that Mātaatua is your waka? Mātaatua is also my waka! How awesome— we must be whānau!
It's cool that Hine-nui-te-po is your ancestral house; she's amazing. Do you know much about Hine-nui-te-po?
Keep up the great mahi, e hoa.
Whakawhetai,
Jordan.
