Matariki Celebration

My first hangi at school.

I am writing about Matariki Celebration. Matariki is all about spending time with your family and having a good time. Matariki is the eldest sister in the cluster; they are actually nine stars. Matariki protects the other stars. Waiti is the youngest sister. The second youngest sister is Waita.

Matariki is a star cluster, not a constellation. Matariki puts the other sister in their space. Room 8 and all of the other classes were making art for Matariki. We made something on our chromebook and we made slides. We had to write facts about Matariki then everyone finished but some of them didn't finish. When we were doing the slides Mrs Lamas was stapling our wishing star in the whole way.

Mrs Lamas made the shape like a M and it stands for Matariki. We started going to the other classes in the middle block. The first class we went to was room 10 , room 11 , room 7 , room 6 , room 2 and 3 then the last class we went to was room 4 when we left we sang a song is Maori and it was macalen

Finally we went to the hall for our hangi and these were the stuff inside chicken , Vegan pumpkin and kumara. Then I only ate the kumada and some pumpkin and some vegetables.
