Matariki Afternoon

We have been really unlucky with the weather recently and our Matariki afternoon yesterday had been postponed for a week because of the rain!

We loved celebrating Matariki. We had our Kapa Haka group and Matua to lead them in a powhiri to welcome everyone together. Then we split into our house groups to do some Matariki crafts to celebrate the Māori New Year. 

If you look closely you can see the stars of Matariki in the sky!

After we did our crafts we tidied up and then went outside to join together again and have some baked spuds with lots of yummy toppings. We sat together to celebrate Matariki with our school and families.

Happy Matariki!
