Matariki
When the Matariki stars appear it is the beginning of the Maori new year.
We celebrate Matariki like we celebrate a happy new year.
Like sisters the stars shine bright like a diamond.
Matariki is a time for joy, like having fun with your family members.
It is a time to learn like at school.
It is a time to plant crops like potatoes, kumaras and tomatoes.
It is a time to fish and hunt
It is a time to make things like necklaces,bracelets,kites and clothes.
It is a time to for give
Matatriki reminds me of family and friends that passed away because of the stars in the sky.
