Museum visit

We had a great trip to the Museum to complete our Matarki learning. Marise our  Museum teacher talked to us about celebrating Matariki and how the Tangata Whenua caught and stored their food. She also taught us how to weave using brightly coloured paper strips. Marise commented on our lovely manners and on how well we supported each other in our learning. Well done Room 3 ... I was very proud of you!

Celebrating Matariki

What a wonderful celebration for our Matariki day:  a traditional Maori 'boil up' (thank you Mr Clark!!), Rakau sticks and songs, Reader's Theatre Matariki, the stories of Matariki on U-tube,  feathers for our Korowais, card games, learning about Matariki with a buddy.
