Nau mai, te whetū o te tau! Educators from He Tohu Pōneke (Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa – National Library of New Zealand) will share how Te Kāhui o Matariki connects us to people, to whānau and to the rhythms of the natural world. Using a whāriki star map and special glowing pīataata (star globes), come and share the magic of Matariki this Hōtoke season. We’ll mihi, sing and tuku karakia to our loved ones passed and make wishes for the year ahead! (Mātauranga Māori shared by He Tohu Tāmaki and Te Wānanga o Aotearoa)
