“Hello and welcome my name is Jim and I am going to be your waka leader today. He said something very lovely he said if your mum and dad didn't meet you wouldn't be here today and I thought that was lovely. When he finished his lovely story I said in my head yes he has finished the lovely story now we can go on the waka. I got on the boat and got my paddle it was very light. Jim said has everyone got their paddle and is everyone facing the front everyone said yes so we all started paddling. I thought the hardest part was turning around and I thought the funniest part was paddle. We went past all these homes and we had to turn around to go back to school. When we got back he said who would like to say thank you so I did and I said thank you for our class. I was happy I did say thank you.
