              The   Rock Warriors retold by: Alexander


The Patupaiarehe  people lived around the lakes of Rotorua at a placed called’’ Ngongotaha’’ hUndreds of years ago.These people  had fair skin and they were very excellent  gardeners.

The Tipua people were giants and they were very bad tempered.These people wanted to take the wonderful lakes and the land away from the Patupaiarehe  people.

One day the Tipua giants decided to attack the Patupaiarehe people. The Patupaiarehe people went to their leader and asked him to save them. Tongakahu was a good leader and he was also a good magician.

Tongakohu went on top of Ngongotaha mountain and lit a fire and he cast a magic spell.The Tipua  warriors started feeling, tired so they stopped for a rest, When they wanted to move they felt their skin cracking.They started to turn into rocks. If you go to that mountain you will see them.

Tongakohu was finally able to save his people from the Tipua giants of Kaimai Mountains.
