Matariki June 10, 2013




We are fortunate to celebrate Matariki in New Zealand - the Maori New Year in June 10 this year.  During the season of winter its darkness and cold, we can embrace a time to for new beginnings, to celebrate, to be grateful.

Matariki offers us the opportunity to celebrate light, love, nourishment, remembrance and family.

Below are some resources which may be helpful to our Playcentres in celebrating Matariki.

A downloadable booklet giving a concise outline of Matariki and how one might mark this event.  Written by the Maori Language Commission.

Papamoa Playcentre will once again bring our families together to celebrate Matariki.  How do you celebrate Matariki at your centre?
