Whaea Harima Comes to Visit

Today we were very lucky to have Cairo's grand-nana come in to share a story about Matariki. She read us a story about the seven star-fishes.


Afterwards we painted some Matariki pictures and had a go at weaving our own harakeke (flax) fish.

With the help of Whaea Harima and Mrs Clyde, we made a cool wall display. Can you use it to retell the story about the seven star fishes?



Thank you SOOOOOO much to Cairo's family and Whaea Harima for sharing your culture with us. It is really special for our tamariki to learn about their ancestors. It gives them a real sense of pride about where they come from.

If any other families would like to come in and share a story or information about their culture, please get in touch. We'd love to hear from you! :-)
