For much of Term 2, we will be learning about and celebrating Matariki. We will be reading a range of stories and taking part in a school-wide art rotation each week.
This week Waitī looked at the star - Matariki. One of the stars in the Matariki constellation.
Matariki is the star that signifies reflection, hope, our connection to the environment and the gathering of people. Matariki is also connected to the health and wellbeing of people.
Matariki - Te Wananga o Aotearoa
So with this in mind this week we have been having a kōrero about how we can look after ourselves, our wellbeing. We have read the book 'Aroha's Way' and talked about how to slow our breathing to help control our feelings, if we are scared, worried, angry. Or how to stand to help us feel more confident.
Kia ora Waiti mā, Ko Te Whiri tēnei. E mihi ana ki a koutou mo to koutou mahi papai rawa!. He rawe te kite i o koutou mahi, ko te mea pai ki a mātou te mahi toi me te kiriata te ara o Aroha. Kia kaha tonu koutou ki te mahi i o koutou mahi.
