The Seven stars of Matariki
Matariki
Tupu-a-Nuku
Tupi-a-rangi
Waiti
Waita
Waipuna-a-rangi
Ururangi
It is the Maori new year
Matariki and her sisters gather
In a cluster
High above
We look to Matariki
For guidance
When we
Plant
Harvest
And catch Kaimoana
A time to celebrate Matariki
That was a cool day in Waitangi, I enjoyed weaving the kite the most!!! We are lucky to have so much culture to be part of!!
