Matariki by Melanie Drewery

'Tonight we have to go to bed really early,' said Mum. 'Tomorrow morning we are going to have a surprise.'

But what event would be so special to get you up in the middle of a cold New Zealand winter?

Matariki is rising and the New Year is on its way.

A family celebrate the Māori New Year and talk about what Matariki means to different people.
