Whetū mā Matariki
During Matariki, the children have had the opportunity to explore different art processes and mediums to create various types of stars. They can engage in these activities such as painting, drawing, collaging and even sculpting to bring their creative vision to life. Through these art experiences the children can experiment with different materials like paint, glitter, glue collage as well as learning about technology and laminating their art work.
This process allows the children to not only express their creativity but work collaboratively with their peers and learn about the different stars that relate to Matariki.
Matariki is a time for reflection and new beginnings . As they engage in these art experiences they develop their fine motor skills, imagination, and cultural understanding creating a sense of pride and connection to the Matariki Celebrations unique to Aotearoa.
