Matariki hunga nui - Matariki, the gatherer of people

Celebrate Matariki and nurture your hauora alongside Tuihana Ohia.

Matariki gives us the opportunity to pause, process, settle and celebrate the year that was. At this workshop created to support community wellbeing, Tuihana shares a wellbeing practice, explore some of the mātauranga around Matariki, and guide participants through a reflective exercise to help nourish and strengthen our mauri.

Together, we'll consider moments from the past year to celebrate, whether we are making space for joy and replenishment in our lives, and explore some of the hopes, wishes, and aspirations we hold for ourselves and our whānau or communities in the year ahead.

Participants have the opportunity to write a letter to their future selves - a collection of reflections, dreams and intentions to revisit when Matariki returns in 2027.
