Matariki Movies









Tane Mahuta and Matariki

We had such a great week preparing for Tane Mahuta Day and Matariki.
We did lots of great research in our groups about both topics finding out loads of interesting things.

Did you know that Tane Mahuta is the name of the giant kauri tree in a forest in New Zealand? Some members of our class have even seen it!

Here is a photo of how big it is ...... Wow!!




We also found out some other interesting facts about Tane Mahuta
