Tupu-ā-rangi loves to sing, and has a song for every occasion! Papa takes her to sing along for te wao nui (the great forests), and all the children of Tānemahuta. Her beautiful voice revives the forest. Because of her actions, the manu (birds), the mokomoko (lizards) - indeed all the creatures of the forest- share their waiata (song) too, which fills the world with joy.
Tupu-ā-rangi learns these songs too and holds them close to her heart. We learn from her the importance of sharing our gifts with others, and appreciating those shared with us.
Today we learnt a new waiata especially for Matariki!
We also made special thank you cards for the people in our life who help us out, or enhance our life, through the sharing of their talents.
