These are our new waiata Matariki and that we will start to learn next week.
What did we learn about Matariki today?
· It is the Māori New Year.
· Matariki is a cluster of 7 whetū.
· The cluster of stars is also known as the Seven Sisters or the Pleiades.
· Preparing the soil for next season begins.
· Matariki rises about 4am in the morning!
Your homework was to find out something about Matariki and share it with us next week. I will be putting up more information soon to help you. Kia kaha!
