Wharenui

Wharenui

A wharenui is like a history of the people that have passed away, And
the carvings are reminders of some of the maori people. It is a maori
home for the maori people. The wharenui is not just a house it is also a
building of the maori ancestors. The head of the wharenui is called a
koruru. The arms \are called maihi and the hands are called the
raparapa.


The marae is important because they can help the poor people and feed
them and let them stay. The marae is also important because you can
learn about the maori people and they can teach you what the wharenui
is.
