The Explorers were honored by a special visit from very special kupuna from Aotearoa, Sir Dr. Mead and Lady June Mead. We sang a Maori song about the seven wa'a that voyaged to Aotearoa 700 years ago. Lady June said that Sir Dr. Mead's ancestors migrated on the great voyaging waka (wa'a), Mataatua, which, coincidentally, happened to be mentioned in the song. Chicken skin! Thank you Kumu Ane, Kumu Peiterson, and Kumu Tai!!
