✨ Matariki Whānau Evening ✨

A big thank you to everyone who came along to our Matariki Whānau Evening last week. It was great to see so many of our Poppies whānau together for a special evening of connection and reflection.

The clear, crisp night made it perfect for gathering around the campfire, singing waiata, enjoying homemade vegetable soup and toasting marshmallows.

A special thank you to Kare and Lisa for opening and closing the evening with karakia.

Thank you to everyone who came along and helped make it such a lovely evening.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou katoa.
