Happy Matariki
What is Matariki?
Matariki is the name for the traditional Māori new year which occurs between late May and early June. Similar to Chinese New Year, the exact timings vary each year and begin with the reappearance of the Matariki star cluster. When this star cluster rises, the celebrations begin on the first full moon that follows.
