A special place in the community

A special place in the community.


Write to explain to your reader why this place is special.


Think about:
  • what your reader needs to know about the marae
  • how you are going to introduce the marae
  • the order of your ideas and how you link them.

A marae is a special place in the community because it's a place where you have
celebrations, to celebrate what you can do at a marae. Education, learning different
ways that moari learned back then where there was learning about moari language,
carving, and more. Also a marae is their for whanau connections where you connect with
your whanau, relations and your tupuna.


Whanau connections:
A marae is a special place in the community because you meet your relatives who you
haven't seen before. Also you go their to learn your whakapapa which is who are you
related to and who your ancestors and tupuna were. That's how you find out who you
really belong to and who your great great and so on grandparents are as well. 


Education:
A marae is a special place because you learn different and unique ways of doing things
that moari learned before. Such as, carving, arts, culture and our own language te reo
moari. You also learn about who created the marae and why your tupuna was crafted on
the outside of the marae. We also learn about our culture who are we as moari and how
is being maori significant to us. 


Celebrations:
A marae is a special place in the community because it holds family celebrations.
We celebrate birthdays, family reunions and more at a marae. But we weren't aloud to
leave when a tangihanga was happening because that was disrespect to the whanau who
had lost their loved ones. 

In conclusion, A marae is a special place in the community because it brings everyone
together as a whanau and you can build up whanaungatanga around your tupuna that you
haven’t met before. A marae is a place where you learn about new, unique and totally
different ways of creating things, planning and all sorts that you can also do with your
relatives. A marae is also a place where you celebrate important events.
A marae is also built as a place for the homeless to stay incase they didn’t have a place
to stay.
