“It’s about self-reflection. Also, it’s about educating our tamariki, so that they really understand the occasion and meaning behind Matariki, and it doesn't become trivialised as just another day off – that they appreciate the spiritual and practical meaning behind it as well,” Hakaraia said.
Last week the Government announced the official dates for the next 30 years of Matariki holidays. The holiday will always be a Friday, with June 24, 2022, as the inaugural date.
