Tino Pai Reo Rua... I love Matariki. Matariki is all about celebration, and spending time with family. ... Matariki is also important for agriculture. The coming of Matariki symbolised the harvest festival where the Maori feasted on the crops they had prepared. Matariki is important because it also is the time to restart the Maori calendar. This year Matariki begins on 13th July. How will you celebrate during the school holidays?
ReplyDeleteThank you Mrs Collins.
ReplyDeleteWe celebrated by having a Matariki Ball at school and it was so much fun. All of our families came and we danced all night.
Whaea Sangita will share some photos.
