Happy Matariki!

Kia ora bloggers!

Check out some of the Matariki art that we completed at the end of Term 2. We're very proud of our efforts and really enjoyed learning about the Māori New Year.

What did your class do to mark this special time of the year?

 These artworks were inspired by the story The Little Kiwi's Matariki.

We were lucky enough to have the fabulous Mrs B in our class while Miss Nodder was away for a few days. We made our very own Matariki stars and did some weaving too.

    1. Kia ora Room 4. Thank you for your comments. It did take a lot of time. We did this work for three days. The stars are not kites but we used paper, glue and stickers to make them and we have hung them next to the window. From Harris Class. Did you do anything to celebrate Matariki? Maybe you could share your work with us?

  2. I love your stars and I like how you made them like they're dream catchers. I like the one second from the left because it reminds me of unicorn colours.

    1. Hi Bailey,

      Thank you for commenting on our blog. It is very nice that you love our stars. The one that reminds you of unicorn colours is Krisha's from our class. I think it also looks like unicorn colours. The stars are beautiful. We had fun cutting and colouring our stars, then we hung them up by the window and made it pretty.
      Have you made stars like our's? If you did, could you send a picture to us?

  3. Hi Hariss Class,
    I love your Matariki art. I like how you've added detail in the kiwi art. I also like all of the colors in the stars, but are the stars kites?
