Kupe report

 Today we learnt about kupe and all his adventures and i am here to tell you about what i have learnt . to start off kupe was the first explorer to find aotearoa by accident which is pretty funny because he was on his way to kill his enemies wheke because it was eating to much kaimoana and killing all the fish and making it hard for people to leave and get kaimoana. He also killed the wheke in the name of war. Kupe actually named the hokianga harbour te puna o te ao marama. There is a story that people told about kohukohu , that kupe actually cursed the town and the people in it  because he was served cooled food so being impatient and greedy he started yelling at everyone and cursing them all just because the food was cold. When kupe first stepped on the land of aotearoa as he was exploring he found that his footsteps were turning into stone behind him. Many places that are in aotearoa kupe actually named even though some of them are changed now a days kupe and his wife hine te aparangi were the ones who actually gave aotearoa their name
