Harvesting for Matariki
Preparing for our Matariki Festival at BestStart Railway Road begins with harvesting the pumpkins for our famous Spicy Pumpkin Soup we serve to families who gather with us on our special Matariki evening.
Last year our tamariki saved the pumpkin seeds from the pumpkins we harvested. We dried them and and planted them in our vegetable patch. This extended on the children's understanding of how food grows and the growth cycles that make up a year.
