Birchwood School and Stoke-Tāhunanui Kāhui Ako Matariki Celebration

Kia ora Koutou,

Birchwood School and the Stoke- Tāhunanui Kāhui Ako are each holding Matariki

celebrations on Wednesday 28 June. 

Birchwood school

event starts at 2pm. Parents and whānau are invited to come to school and experience

some of our learning around Matariki and our ‘Future Starts with Me’ inquiry. 

Birchwood kapa haka will perform at 2.45pm. We’re not sure where yet because the

hall will be a construction zone! But we’ll keep you posted. The BOT will run a

sausage sizzle.

The Kāhui Ako Matariki event at Nayland College is 5.30pm to approximately 7.30pm.

It includes time for local kura to share their kapa haka groups. Birchwood’s

kapa haka group will perform (at a time to be confirmed). There will be kai available

(example, Birchwood PTA will be serving pork buns). More information will be shared

as it becomes available.

If your child is able to attend the Kāhui Ako Matariki evening, or you’re able to help on

the night, please either sign and return the slip below, or email Damian (address below).

Please let me know if you have any questions. 

Ka kite,
