Matariki is special because it is when it is the Maori New Year. There are seven stars when it is Matariki and they are called Uru-a-rangi,Tupu-a-rangi,Waipuna-a-rangi,Tupu-a-nuku,Matariki,Waiti and Waita. Our hub celebrated Matariki by doing workshops. The workshop that I did was flax weaving. Flax weaving is when you get a piece of Harakiki(Flax) and overlap them. We made flowers which were roses and another flower. These are the flowers that I made. I also did planting with Mr Cotrell. We planted our own seeds that will turn into trees.I planted a harakiki bush (Flax).
