Te Papa Website: 

The brighter and clearer the stars seemed, the warmer the growing season would be, ensuring a good harvest.

In different countries around the world Matariki has different names.


Celebrating Puanga at Ramanui:

Near the maunga (mountain) of Taranaki, 

a small school is celebrating a very special

event. Every year, Ramanui School in Hāwera

honours the arrival of the star Puanga.

When Puanga appears in the eastern sky just

before dawn, it marks the start of the Māori

New Year in Taranaki.

In many parts of Aotearoa, people

celebrate the Māori New Year when

Matariki (a group of stars also known

as the Pleiades) appears.
