Matariki



After doing all the hard work with our research and choir practice it was finally time to have some Matariki celebrations. The Magical Stars evening on Tuesday was great! It started with all of the choir and their families sharing tea in the hall. This was followed by a truly magical night where the choir entertained us in the church. They sang songs composed by New Zealanders and some of the composers were there to hear their work. Cliff Fell even sang his song and played with the choir. After that there were fireworks to keep the night sparkling.
On Wednesday we gave our buddies star badges to say Happy New Year. Later our Syndicate ate together and had lovely Matariki cakes as a treat to finish off.
What a wonderful celebration we had!
