Team 8 are investigating and learning about different cultures for their Inquiry.
We have been learning about Matariki - Maori New Year. This is celebrated at this time of the year. Team 8 have found out that at this time of the year some Maori families like to gather together to share food. (Kai) Make sure you ask the children of Team 8 some of the other interesting things that we have learnt about Matariki.
Here are the photos of us making and eating out Maori Fried bread... Delicious!!!!
