Cook Island Language Week Activity

We had a great session with Hamida and Aunty Hayley on Friday where they taught us a little bit about the Cook Island traditions, language, musical instruments and etiquette when dancing - never let a lady dance alone!

Mt Everest picture

We are learning about Sir Edmund Hillary this week and have been discussing the difference between climbing the mountain back in 1953 and now. Here is the photo (first one) shared recently showing the long wait climbers have before them before reaching the summit. Hours of waiting. Crazy! What a difference from then to now.
