Manaia and his Sommerville friends go on trips to  explore our local community.

One of the best places we have been to is the Van Damm's Lagoon in Panmure.

Our movie from Te Hapori is about measuring in woodwork. We learnt about centimeters and millimeters so we could cut the wood correctly to make our bird houses. Hope you enjoy it.
