Multicultural Festival

Marlborough Girls' College —

On 4 March Blenheim held their annual Multicultural Festival, and it was a kaleidoscope of colours and culture.

Students from our Te Ao Haka and Te Riu o Te Wairau whānau class group combined on the day to perform. The group also performed the waiata tautoko for Matua Luke Katu who opened the festival with karakia.
