during the beginning of matariki, i went on a noho trip with my class from the wananga in hamilton. it was our first noho as a class so i was extremely nervous, but not long after the pōwhiri & we had some kai along with some good chats, we all settled quickly. the next morning we all woke up at 5am to go out behind the wharekai because that’s where the best views were & one of our kaiako taught us the waiata of how to find each whetū and the story behind matariki. it was such a beautiful experience.
