New Zealand will be celebrating Matariki this year from 19 June to 11 July.

Mataraki – Te Tau Hou Māori, the Māori New Year is a time of renewal and celebration in New Zealand that begins with the rising of the Matariki star cluster.

With a potluck of all our favourite meals the NIHI whānau came together to mark the occasion and reflect on the past, celebrate the present and look forward to the amazing work we have planned for the future!
