Kohanga's Annual Hangi |
||
|
Kohanga's annual hangi was held on Sunday the 25th of June out at Clandon House in Surrey. Work for the hangi had stated almost as soon as the last hangi had finished in 2005 as this year the Kohanga dads were meant to be running the hangi pit. We also had a lot of help from the London NZ rugby team this year too, which meant more hands made light work of just about everything!
