Hi Sione, Mrs Collins commenting on blogs over term break. Well done on posting and participating in the SLJ this year. You've made a nice tapa design Sione...Tapa cloth (or simply tapa) is a barkcloth made in the islands of the Pacific Ocean, primarily in Tonga, Samoa and Fiji, but as far afield as Niue, Cook Islands, Futuna, Solomon Islands, Java, New Zealand, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea and Hawaii (where it is called kapa). Keep blogging, and commenting on others, to increase your chance of winning one of the awesome prizes and to keep up your learning over the school break!

Kia ora Tu'ipulotu,

Your tapa cloth is beautiful! Ka pai.

I really enjoy the choices you made when you made your tapa design. You have created a really unique design, is the eclipse and the sun and moon cycle something you are interested in?

Would you ever consider making a real like tapa cloth? Or, have you made one before? I would love to know :)

Nga mihi
Erica
