Matariki

 Kia ora readers 

Today we have to do a matariki blog, and we have to do some facts about matariki. Matariki is Maori new year for all new Zealanders. Matatriki is a star cluster not a constellation. in the Maori language. Matariki is both the name of the Pleiades star cluster and also of the season of its first rising in late June or early July. This is a marker of the beginning of the new year. If the matariki stars were all together its makes a cat eye. There used to be 7 sisters and now there is nine sisters.  Matariki has many different names around the world.

Thanks for looking at my blog please comment and have a awesome day.
