On Monday the middle syndicate walked from school to Te Ora in Glen innes. In Te Ora we learnt many things about Matariki (Maori new year). When we reached our destination we had to wait for a while to get inside the auditorium.
When we finally got inside the auditorium we were split into three groups. The three groups were year 4, year 5 and year 6, each group did a different activity.
Year 4 learnt that there are 7 or 9 sisters.There were three activities, the first was doing clay, we made clay art and made a wishing star out of flax .
The second was painting rocks with different shades of blue, Year 5 Students were painting rocks. Year 6 Students were flax weaving.
Finally the third activity which was weaving stars of the seven or 9 sisters. That last activity wasn’t an easy task as we all had to do it, you didn’t have a choice to do it or not.
