Our first ever Bream Bay Schools Matariki Festival was held last Friday - it was a truly awesome day. We started with a powhiri attended by our local Kaumatua and Kuia and kapa haka groups from One Tree Point, Waipu and Ruakaka schools put on a wonderful performance. The Bream Bay College students were a real inspiration and something for our younger tamariki to aspire to. Many thanks for everyone at Waipu School who hosted us - at One Tree Point School we have been passed on the 'Mauri' and will host the event in 2021.
