Kia ora Whānau!
Matariki is celebrated this year on
Thursday 18 June. Traditionally, larders were stocked and it was time to feast,
the stars advised when to plant new crops, and it was a time to reconnect with
whānau.
Birchwood school want celebrate
Matariki this Friday 19 June with a whole school shared lunch in whānau
classes. Whole school shared lunch is great because it celebrates our whānau
and family, our place in our school, and eating together bonds us.
Students are asked to bring
something to share with 2-3 (or more) others. This is supposed to be good,
healthy fun, so sandwiches, fruit and other healthy options are great! The
sausage sizzle will take a break this Friday but will be back in force and with
sauce in week 10.
