Maori New Year! By Renee

Over the last few weeks Room 2 has been studying Puanga, Matariki, stars, constellations and planets. We are making a Puanga booklet with lots of information in them about Māori stars and constellations.
Māori new year is a time for celebrating, remembering, learning and setting goals. In the old days  Māori people used the stars as maps and calendars. I am enjoying learning about Māori New Year and the Māori stars.
