Our love for Matariki
Kia ora matariki hari, hari hoki. Nau mai ki to mātau Teihana Whakaaro i reira ka ora te auaha. I tēnei tau ka pōhiritia e mātau he whānau ki roto i to mātau pokapū hai whakanui i te Māori tau hou. I tino pai ki a mātau te kite i a mātau tamariki me a mātau whānau katoa e haere tahi ana mo te kai tiritiri me te whakangahau mai i te Kura Tuarua o Hamilton Junior.
Welcome to our Imagination Station, where creativity comes to life. We welcomed our families back to our centre to celebrate the Maori new year. We loved seeing all our children and families coming together for shared food and entertainment from Hamilton Junior High School. In preparation for our upcoming whānau evening, our tamariki had a great time decorating our preschool together with their kaiako. We created the night sky for all of the nine stars of Matariki for display.
For shared kai, our wonderful kaiako whipped up a delicious batch of Pumpkin soup and fry bread. Alongside this, we had yummy baked goods and a raffle for sale. This was a basket full of goodies for one lucky parent to win! All had fun as we came together to honour and celebrate the Māori new year, may this year be filled with love and joy for all our whānau.
