Pacific Mamas


We went to the Corban Estate Art Centre to see the Pacific Mamas and do some fun activities. We had to take our shoes of before we went inside.


We made leis using fabric flowers, plastic straws that were cut up into little pieces and string. We had a lot of fun making our leis.

After we finished making our leis they looked like this. The adults also made leis and theirs looked colourful too.

We each took turns on playing the drums. There were log drums and there were skin drums. The log drums are the ones that look like a log and the skin drums are the ones that look like they have animal skin on it.

We learnt a dance. The girls had a different dance than the boys. 

Later we left and I really wanted to stay longer because I had a lot of fun making leis and playing the drums.
