New Matariki book out now!


The latest Te Reo Singalong book, called Matariki, is being snapped up by teachers all over New Zealand. Sharon Holt’s award winning Te Reo Singalong series has been growing in popularity with teachers and children in primary schools and early childhood centres for the last two years. And the latest addition to the series, Matariki, is as popular as the other five books, according to author and publisher Sharon Holt. 

“Teachers have already been telling me they are very excited about a new Matariki book being available,” she says. Holt believes it’s five years since the last picture book about Matariki was published, so her new title is great news for teachers wanting to prepare for their Matariki focus in Term 2. Like each of the other books in the series, Matariki comes with a CD and activity ideas. 
But this book has something extra too. “We’re creating a video of children doing kapa haka dance moves for this song,” says Holt. 

The video will be on the Te Reo Singalong website by Monday 14 April.
