Matariki Art and Stories

We read the legend of Matariki. We learnt about the 7 sisters and how they came to be a constellation of Stars in the night sky. We talked about the Matariki Celebrations and the Maori New Year.
We painted our own night skies. We made some golden stars and glued them onto our night sky paintings.  We wrote stories about our paintings and published them. They look fantastic.

Here we are hard at work painting our stars.
