Malama Hounua

Malama Honua Event

On a hot sunny Wednesday Morning,Glenbrae school students walked to Pt. England beach to see the wakas Hourua Hokule’a and the Hikianalia that had come from Hawaii.  When we got there, we quickly settled down on the grass and waited first the crew to come a shore.

When the crew started coming to the shore in a small speed boat,  all the schools sang a waiata called E Oho and we kept on singing until everyone was on the shore.

Then the Kau matua welcomed all the crew to Pt. England with speech and then the children sang another waiata and did the haka.

Lastly, all the schools had to go down to the beach and hi 5 the Hawaiian crew.  Then we all got into our school lines and walked back to our schools.
