Event
Matariki is traditionally a time of reflection, gathering together in gratitude for the harvest and making plans for the future.
Inspired by conversation and whakatauki (proverbs) about gratitude, children will design their own visual Pukapuka Whakawhetai (gratitude journal) to take home and add to over the coming year.
Free
Suitable for ages 4 - 14 years.
(All children must be accompanied by a guardian).
Bookings essential.
