Matariki Week

This week we have been celebrating Matariki. We enjoyed some soup made from everyone sharing one vegetable. This afternoon we were treated to a special kapahaka performance and we paid tribute to the students who designed and painted the Pou that are now in the front of the school.

What is matariki? Well some students from the kapahaka made a movie sharing the legend of Matariki.

Digital Dudes: Watch this movie again. Copy and paste questions in a google doc in your reading folder and answer.

  • Who raised Mitai?
  • What could Mitai transform into?
  • What was the terrible plan that Mitai heard the Fairy woman talking about?
  • How did Mitai and the brothers catch the Fairy Women and what did they do with them?
  • What are some things that happen during Matariki?
