Its a new year!
Talofa Lava Bloggers! Today I will be blogging about Matariki. This Thursday our whole school celebrated Matariki in our classes. Matariki is the Maori new year. A special constellation comes for about a week every year. In the Maori culture its best to harvest around this time. Our school celebrated this in our classes. The seniors did three different activities they were stop motion animation retelling a Matariki story with Miss Daly. Also Maori kites called Manu Tukutuku with Mrs Law, and delicious Fried Bread with Mrs Jones. My favourite activity was Fried Bread with Mrs Jones.
First we made the dough with Self Raising Flour and water. Then, we divided the dough and split into groups and cut the dough. After, we went and fried the bread with a teacher and then put some toppings on top like Golden syrup, Nutella, Butter and Jam. We ate it and it was delicious!!
I had such a fun day and am sad I won't be here next year to do it again.
Hope you enjoyed my blog post! Did you celebrate Matariki? If you did what did you do?
If you have any spare time please comment below! Blog you later! Here are some photos!
