Matariki

What is Matariki? In Kapa Haka this week Mr Chadwick has been talking to us about Matariki. Next week we will be doing some fun activities to celebrate this special time of year.

For homework this week your task is to gather information about Matariki.
Yesterday we discussed where you can find information. Here are some suggestions the class made:
Lachlan - talking to experts
Mila - newspapers
Alex - Library/books
Lucy B - Internet
Here are a few links you might find useful:
http://www.matarikievents.co.nz/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matariki

Remember we do not want people bringing in pages and pages of information. So you need to summarise the information you have found into a few sentences.
