Māori@Marshland - Toroa T2

 Celebrating Matariki

Thanks to Kasey and Daisy from Toroa who shared their wonderful mahi on Matariki. The task required tamariki to look at the names of the stars and their meanings, liken them to animals and develop an image with the animal faces in the sky in the shape of the constellation. Definitely some very insightful thinking from the girls when they explained the rationale for their choices.

Māori@Marshland - Pukeko

By
Sam Jones The Pukeko Hub has had a great start to Term 2! Last week, we got straight back into our learning by spending our afternoons creating our visual pepehas. As part of this, we drew pictures of our parents - matua and whaea, our home - Ōtautahi, and korus to decorate. We are now learning and practicing how to say our pepehas confidently and clearly to others. Make sure to keep a look out for our pepeha art next time you're in the Pukeko Hub.

This term Pukeko have been working on their Pepeha. We have created a visual Pepeha incorporates their mountain and river. In our hub we have created two different types. Boyce and Sim created a textured artwork with pastel and dye. Calvert and Smith created a sketch with pastel and dye. Students are at their beginning stages of learning their pepeha. They will continue to learn and practice their Pepeha next term.
