Science Idol Rap

We have been busy writing our rap about classifying fish!  It is sounding great and we have stunning dancers in Room 6.  Mrs C is going to learn to edit videos and add music this weekend so she can submit it to the competition.

Tomorrow in our school Matariki festival.  We are looking forward to it!
Matariki has always been an important time in the Māori calendar.

Heralded by the rising of the star constellation known as Matariki, the Māori New Year signalled a time for connecting with, and giving thanks to the land, sea and sky. It was a time for the community to come together to farewell those departed and acknowledge the year gone by. It was also a time to turn to the future, welcoming the new generation to the world and planning for the year ahead.

In addition Matariki was a time when people would gather to share kai, rituals, entertainment, hospitality and learnings.
