LI: To understand the story behind our flag
Our challenge today was to create a collaborative presentation that reflects the story behind our NZ flag. We did this by looking at how our flag has changed over time. Something I found interesting was that the flag was originally made from a missionary named Henry William, He styled the flag of the church missionary society such as the British White Ensign, Which also is a St george’s Cross with a flag in the corner.

Before they were talking LS1 showed them a video about our Pese o le Tatau and our tracing we created it into a video and showed our great tracing and our skills.The song the tracings were based on was a Samoan song based on a story of two sisters travelling to Samoa to get a Tatau and made sure they only tell the women not men but then they saw a shimmery clam with a shiny ball in it they went to go and check it out but it was to shiny and they got dizzy and forgot the song they were singing they got confused and sang Tatau for the men not the women they felt something was wrong but they just kept on singing it so the Tatau was for the men not the women.
