We have been learning about the seven sisters in other words matariki. We discovered that the real meaning of matariki is a maori new year when they get together ,have kai and celebrate .
We celebrated by getting together in home room 4 .Then some people went and got our visitors to help. We went through the rules before we headed off. I was creating a beautiful kite with toi toi. It was a fun experience .Something that challenged me was weaving the flax underneath the kite. It took us quite a while to get the hang of it. We decided to do ours a bit different . Instead of weaving our flax's on top we weaved it under . Our kite wasn't about the looks it was more about how it flew. In the end we did't get to fly it because it was more of a decoration and it would wreck our kite.
