Matariki

Kia ora

Over the last few weeks we have been learning about space and Matariki. Matariki Is the Maori New year, it takes place when the seven stars of Matariki are in the sky. Can you see them in the night sky?





We created a Korowai (Cloak) That represents our family down the sides, each koro pattern is a family member and on the inside of our korowai we have drawn Matariki to guide us.

Here are some videos and links to more learning about space.
