Our Visitors

Today we had The Elders come to Mahi Tahi for a visit.

We sang a welcome song, we read books to them, and we did a dance.

We hope they come again.

We have been learning about Matariki. We learned about how we celebrate Matariki here in Nelson. We

- Listened to stories about Matariki and other celebrations
- Discussed things we do at Matariki
- Contributed to ideas to a lantern design
- Made a lantern
- Shared our lanterns with our community on a walk
- Sang Matariki Songs
- Found out why Matariki is celebrated

Here are some of our ideas about Matariki.

Here we are on our lantern walk.

Our trip to the pool

On Thursday we went to the pool for the day. We went on the bus. It wasn't sunny but we went in anyway. Some children went down the slide. We had a great time.
