Matariki at the Treaty Grounds

Last week on Tuesday Paihia School went to the Treaty Grounds to celebrate Matariki (the maori new year). At the Treaty Grounds we were put in groups, I was in group 3 and we planted our plants first. We had to pair up and I was with Tarjon. We planted a Manuka. After we made kites I made mine with Tessa and we had so much fun. After making the kites we had a throwing competition. We did not win but it was still a lot of fun. Later we played a game called Maui and Matou. We had two rounds of it, Astin and Chevy-Lee won. I am glad we do this every year because I it is the best day of school in the whole.😀😃
