On Tuesday the 26th of March, Kauri Team went for a walk around Miropiko Pa, then along
River Road to Memorial Park, to learn about the history of Hamilton. First, we went to Miropiko
Pa and saw a house that had Maori carvings all over it. It had lots of information on the back
and the front of it. Next to the house was a tall piece of wood called a Po, which had been
carved into 3 people. After exploring Miropiko Pa we had morning tea.

After we had morning tea we walked to Memorial Park and saw lots of cool stuff like the Spitfire,
the artillery gun and the anchor. All the statues were so big. One was bigger than all of them and
that was the Rangiriri (the boat). The boat was all rusty and some of it was broken off because
of the rain and the river.

It was so much fun getting to see so many different things, like the Spitfire, gun and the anchor
as we said at the start. It was amazing - you should go and look at it one day yourself!
