Ngaa mihi ki te whanau...
These are just a mixture of events that we have been up to in the last few weeks so enjoy whanau. Remember to check out our Upcoming Events for the latest happening here at your centre Matariki.
Rugby with Sam Kora... Sam has really enjoyed himself so far with us during his practicum and has been amazingly contributing to the Matariki Early Childhood programme. Some of the tamariki have been showing such an interest in the game rugby that we decided to take them to the Taneatua rugby field. While there, Sam took the tamariki through some warm up moves, ball skills, ball drills and then a warm down. What an awesome experience for our tamariki. Sam will be with us for one more week before he returns to his centre in Whakatane. 
Staff Cook Off Competition... Below the starlights staff are enjoying a cook off meal prepared by the Ngaa whatu iti staff. Some of the tamariki assisted in the preparing of the tables with whaea Muffy and also created place mats with the help of whaea Jo. What an awesome idea whaea Jo. Below are Riki, Mihiata, and Wairere creating these beautiful place mats for the staff of starlights.
