Thanks for publishing this one! I had a great time getting it together. The experience was fairly easy so I will be trying my hand at other DIY templates as well. Your site is the best I have used in the last 36 years of my career as an Activity Director, Certified! I wish I had known about your site whenever it first started! So much content and idea sharing… no need to reinvent the wheel! 😊

Hey everyone, I just checked in to see what everyone else is doing for Matariki and noticed it wasn't on the Calendar. We are making a weekly flavoursome soup to share. Does anyone else have any other ideas?
Hi Suzie, that sounds like a good one to include for next year - what an interesting event to celebrate!
we have annual visit from a local kindergarten ...with both partys singing songs together and sharing food... poetry and one to one visiting encouraged... It is mainly driven by teachers and DT as both groups are still new to this new year celebration...
Hi am also looking for ideas to celebrate Matariki.h
Anyone have any ideas on what can done to showcase Matariki please, totally stuck on this one as its new to me .
We invited the local early childhood centres up to perform the combined KapaHaka they have been practising for the community event
Hi, there are so good ideas on Pinterest for Matariki that you may find useful.
Matariki is June 28th - July 2nd this year 2024,
we do exercises to" Macarena" but change words to Oh Matariki that can be found on you tube.
We celebrate with Maori language, Kai {Food) and Waiata (Music) We also learn more about the stars, planting by the moon. Maori dance, Adult colouring Maori pictures. Outings to a Marae. It is a great time in NZ to learn more of the maori culture.
