Activity 2: After visiting Shag Point, you hop back in the van and drive all the way up the east coast of the south island until you reach the town of Picton. You get out of the van and onto the Interislander ferry. It travels back across the Cook Strait to Wellington. Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand and every winter the city hosts a huge Matariki festival to celebrate the Maori New Year. This year part of the festival is being held at Te Papa, a big museum in Wellington.
Read about the Matariki festival at Te Papa.  There are so many different things to see and do at the festival this year. On your blog, tell us about three of the events. You can choose any three events that you wish.

1.One of the events for Matariki is fire works
2.Another event for Matariki is Maori dance

3.Don’t forget light’s in the park

  1. Hi Diego!!

    It is great to see that you completed so many activities as part of the Winter Learning Journey programme. Jacinta, Leslie and I all enjoyed reading your posts and commenting!

    We also enjoyed learning new things. In this post, I learned that there are fireworks as part of the Matariki celebration. I love fireworks! What about you? Do you enjoy going to a fireworks show?

    Cheers,
    Rachel :)
