celebrate MATARIKI This Saturday the 28th of June will now be the fifth time Kahu Youth has got together with the community to celebrate Matariki. Half a decade. Wow. It seems like yesterday we were in the Arts Centre with 40 or so locals having a pot luck dinner, our first celebration! We’ll have our usual workshops and kapa haka performances, the popular interactive art space, a ‘story corner’ for the little ones, two bonfires on the shore with night and fire poi all around and loads more. There are also a few little surprises littered throughout the afternoon and evenings too so make sure you hang about! We can also confirm the amazing fireworks will be back again with funds donated by the Ministry of Youth Development and, not content with being instrumental in the construction of our community hangi, a little help from Tim and Placemakers. This truly is a community event and we are always humbled by the level of help, support and plain old

hard graft we receive from the community to put this on. With that in mind, we would like to extend a massive thank you to (in no particular order); The Ministry of Youth Development, Radio Wanaka & Roy FM, Placemakers, Four Square, The QLDC & Lakes Environmental, The Wanaka Sun, Snowdrifta, ‘Dynamite’ Dave, M.A.C students in the community plus all the phenomenal local young people and adults alike who have been working tirelessly behind the scenes for the last few weeks to help pull this all together. Without all of you doing what you do, and giving what you give, we couldn’t come close to pulling this off. The celebrations are once again at the Dinosaur Park beginning at 2:30pm and will end a little after 6pm. Koha (Donations) are welcomed for the hangi. For more information ...
