Maori / legend .

LI. To learn about Te reo

Toady for Te reo we listened to a legend about how Mt Manganaui and Tauragna was separated and formed. We also searched up places on Google maps that were related to Tauranga.

The legend was about people dragging Mt manganui far from land where he couldn't see tauranga. The reason why Mt manganui was dragged away from land because 2 other people fell in love and Mt Manganaui's heart was broken if he stayed on land. So he was dragged out to the ocean with a rope made out of flax and when the sun rise up Mt Manganaui was then stuck there for ever.

I learned about how they made the rope and Mt manganese getting separated and how Tauranga was found.
