It was great to see the students who were able to make it at the Matariki celebration. Talking to a parent today after school, she felt the same as me...there was a great amount of learning from presenters.

Students were read stories about Matariki
As part of the learning Room 19 prepared Rewena paraoa which is traditional Maori bread. First we had to make a potato bug and then leave that for about 24 hours. The next step was to add flour, salt and sprinkle over baking soda and knead for 10 minutes. Adam, Niamh and Charles were great at doing the kneading.
Today we all worked in the Tech room making Pumpkin and Kumara soup. There have been mixed thoughts about the soup. Most of us loved the bread though.
I liked the matariki evening it taught me heaps about matariki that I didn't know.The pumpkin soup and rewena bread were delicious !!!!
