  • Ko ia kāhore nei i rapu, tē kitea.

    He who does not seek, will not find.

    Kia ora. Hopefully we will be back on site at the end of the week, before then though, we need to keep up the momentum of our learning from home.  Last week you researched groups of New Zealanders using the Te Ara website. This week, you are going to do your own mini investigation.  Perhaps there is a group migration (not just a family at this stage) that has a link to your own background.
