This afternoon as part of our Matariki celebrations for this year we visited the Howick Library for some songs and stories. We were very excited to see our friend Andy who had lots of fun things ready for us. The stories that we heard were Row Row Row Your Waka, Daniels Matariki Feast and Tāwhirimātea which is one of our favourites . We also did some dancing to the Haere Mai song, Oma Rāpeti and Korero Paki Paki. At the end of the session Andy had organised a special treat, music and a bubble machine. What a great way to end a fun music and story time.
We always love being invited to these events, and gain so much learning and experience by being involved in the community. Developing and cultivating relationships with members of our local community is vital to the depth of our local curriculum, and look forward to these relationships continuing to grow in the future.
