An Cuan Sèimh/The Pacific Ocean
Calum, Kerry Anne and the History Hunters bring history to life in the Polynesian Islands of the Pacific Ocean.
Polynesia is the largest of three major cultural areas in the Pacific. The word means 'many islands', and each has its own customs and traditions. Historically, Pacific Islanders travelled between islands in canoes made from available materials like hollowed-out trees. The History Hunters don't have access to tree trunks but set about making their own Pacific-style canoe, complete with an
outrigger for balance.
Woven palm-leaf placemats were used in ceremonies and as special gifts, so the Hunters replicate traditional Pacific weaving patterns to make a recycled-paper placemat - a super present for mum.
In the studio, Calum and Kerry Anne look at two Polynesian greetings - the honi and a Hawaiian welcome garland called a lei.
