Matariki 2021 was celebrated in all the Year 4 classes throughout late June and early July. Learning focused on the Māori lunar calendar and learning about the tikanga and customs associated with this special time of remembrance and new beginnings. Our learning about Matariki culminated in a day centred on craft and a shared te wā kai. Students enjoyed making kites, origami bookmarks and eating a yummy shared hākari (feast) with some fish and chips (ika me nga maramara) . We are all looking forward to Matariki 2022!
