Our Matariki event is a vibrant celebration of culture, kai and kaitiakitanga, bringing together local kōhanga, kura, schools and early-childhood centres to share performances that honour Matariki and our connection to the environment.
Through waiata, haka and storytelling, tamariki express the importance of caring for Papatūānuku while embracing mātauranga Māori. The event also features Māori kai and market stalls, showcasing local produce, crafts and whānau businesses.
This gathering reflects the essence of Matariki – renewal, unity and gratitude – creating a space where the community can come together to celebrate, learn and uplift the traditions of our tūpuna for future generations.
