Matariki ki Sandringham

Jo from Mount Eden

Gather with us for an afternoon of hope and inspiration as we celebrate the first official public holiday for Matariki, on Friday 24 June from 3 pm to 6.30 pm in Sandringham Reserve.

Join us for shared kai, waiata, performances and wānanga on maramataka, rongoā and more. Learn how to make your own poi, raranga (flax-weaving) and create stars for Pōhutakawa Te Whetū (memories of our loved ones who have passed, our hopes and inspirations).

Our Matariki ki Sandringham will end with an amazing Matariki light glow show that celebrates the beauty of Te Taiao (our environment)

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
