This year Matariki celebration has been super special to us. Both my boys have learnt matariki waiata at their school and we have practiced singing them together. This is a video of my 4 year old singing his special waiata which they performed in front of their whanau at their childcare.
We have fully embraced all aspects of celebrations and talked to my whanau about its importance and how it will take us forward in our daily lives. We've remembered a dearly loved family member who lost her battle to cancer earlier this year.
We have talked about gathering food (kaitiakitanga), how to share our food with whanau.
Feeling proud to raise my tamariki to be able to speak Te Reo!
Ma te wa
