Maoridom 2


You cannot  really see how little this Marae is except you can see my sister Elizabeth's head. In fact it was a play house of some little girl. When the Marae of the  Ngati Whatua o Orakei people was burnt down, a rich man gave his daughter's play house to the tribe as their Marae. It is now located next to the Marae and it caught my attention. I asked Ngarimu about this replica and I am so privileged when he told me this story.

They used the little building as their Marae until they built their present one.
