Category: 5 to 10 years

This is a traditional story told in te reo Māori from the perspective of the Kāhui Maunga people about Ngake and Whātaitai. These two taniwha inhabited Te Whanganui-a-Tara, Wellington Harbour, long before the ancestral migrations.

The morsels became islands in the harbour, but Whātaitai was stranded and grew weak and died, becoming part of the land around the harbour. ...Show more
