Matariki Report

Matariki is a common celebration for Maori citizens. Maori people celebrate Matariki in different ways, like: fishing, flying kites, planting and harvesting. Matariki is a Maori name for the Cluster of Stars known as pleiades. Matariki literally means: Eyes of God or Mata ariki or small eyes. Ranginui - sky father and papatuanuku - Earth mother got separated from their naughty children. And Tawhirimatea - God of the wind got so angry that he tore his eyes out and threw them to the Heavens. Traditionally Matariki is a time for remembering those loved ones who have passed and also a time to plant and harvest food in the store houses and a good time to dance and also singing. But Matariki got stopped in the 1940’s. The stars names are: Matariki, Tupuarangi, waipuna-a-rangi, waiti, Tupuanuku, ururangi, waita, pohutukawa and Hiwa-i-te-rangi.

My Mother’s primary school was Good Shepherd. After primary school she then went to Marcellin College to start off her intermediate and secondary schooling from form one to seven. After that she moved into best training institute to study business administration and also went to do her work experience at the district court. My Mother’s first job was at a freight company as a receptionist. Her second job was going back to the district court.
