Hi All, I was wondering for those in New Zealand how would you focus on Matariki? Our manager would us to focus on it but i dont really know a lot about it .any ideas welcome Thanks ,
Hi Toni I am not from New Zealand but from what I know Matariki is celebrated in June It is a family celebration remembering those who have passed and somehow relating this to the stars It also features music song and dance. You could ask the residents and family members what they want to do and how they want to celebrate You could do an arts and crafts project featuring stars either drawing them or coloring them Or using star stickers Let us know what you decide to do Thanks

Thank you so much Golden Carers, I really love using this website. It has been helping my study a lot and I will stick with you for as long as I work in the Aged Care industry.
