Matariki

Matariki is a celebration for the Maori new year. Matariki celebrates the seven stars of Matariki. Matariki is in the middle of the year in June. Matariki is a special time of year four the Maori people. When we did Matariki I learnt how to cook Maori food like fish pie and fry bread. On Friday we went to the hall to watch Kahurangi and they were amazing and for their introduction was a song from the Maori culture. One of the show's they did was a story called Maui and the fish. They sang lots of song's and they were in Maori words and they were awesome.
