Leading Matariki Assembly
Two weeks ago I hosted the school assembly with some friends. It was all about Matariki witch is a maori celebration, you may know it as the Seven Stars or the Seven Sisters. We also talked about the great learning and achievements in the school. We sang the National anthem and said the karakia. It took a lot of courage to stand in front of the school and talk but its a great way to improve my confidence. I love doing assembly and I think I did a great job.
