Room+14+-+2010

Nau mai haere mai ki Akomanga 14! Welcome to Room 14!
Room 14 this year have inherited Te Mara o Matariki/ the Matariki Garden from last year's Room 16. We have just successfully harvested our first crop of kumara with the help of many kaitiaki. Margaret, our potiki Rebecca, our tuakana Pagia, Madelyn, Grace S., Grace K., Tevita, Meleana and Sela. We followed traditional Maori kaupapa, by offering a karakia of thanks, Samoan and Tongan prayers were offered as well. We had special guests including Karleen and Christine, and Mrs Farley and Room 16. It was an exciting time, everyone had an opportunity to dig. It was like looking for gold! We were rewarded with the most humungous kumara! We gifted some kumara to our kaitiaki to say kia ora for their tautoko. It was awesome! We will keep you posted on developments in our mara o Matariki! Ka kite aukuanei!

Here is our powerpoint presentation of the harvest. media type="custom" key="6377731"
