This is the Maori Pa my mum, brother and I made for our school gtsfamilycreate competition. We decided to make a Maori Pa because it was Maori language week and to represent our culture.
We made our Pa using a flat surface cardboard as the base, home made play-dough for the water and land, tooth picks, branches and twigs, glue and twine to put the buildings and barrier together. Maoris built their Pas on high land, and built fences around their homes with sharp ends to keep their enemies out, or to make it harder for them to enter. You can also see our tooth pick Wakas (canoes) on how Maori travelled on water. We made the Maori Tino Rangatiratanga flag by just using paper and black and red felts.
