Matariki
Kia Ora Whānau 

For the rest of the term our school will be taking a journey towards Matariki. 

We will be exploring kumara and undertaking learning activities that explore science, ecology and our local history to do with this special kai. 

On Wednesday June 7th at 1.30pm Ray Mercer will be coming to speak to us about a famous kumara pit in our local area. We would like to extend an invitation to anyone who would like to join us for this. 

Gillian will be cooking various kumara meals with the students during their Garden to Table session and you are most welcome to donate a kumara to this session if you wish.  We would also love to have any kumara recipes that your family enjoys. We hope to collate these into a Matariki recipe book that you will be able to use with your own family. 

Each class also has their own whakataukī  to  explore this matariki season. 
These thought provoking Māori proverbial sayings are going to made into a series of murals featuring student's art.  You will hear more about this later.
