Matariki story



Matariki has got a cluster of stars. But you can only see seven stars with the naked eye. You can see the rest if you have a telescope.You will be able to see them all over the world.

Matariki was used by the farmers. The farmers checked if it was going to be a good winter. If it was bright it would be a good day,if they weren't it would be a bad cloudy winter.

You would only be allowed to see them nine months of the year
. And they will disappear for three month's . It means Maori new year. The stars are the seven sisters.
