Tupuārangi Activity tray prompts - download

Get ready to explore Tupuārangi with this activity pack! This pack is inspired by Tupuārangi the star connected to everything that grows above the earth, from fruit and vegetables to trees and birds.

Our pack includes nine pages of prompts and activity sheets that will inspire tamariki creativity and encourage their love for the natural world. With the kaiako prompts tamariki can learn about the importance of kererū, the native New Zealand bird that plays a vital role in seed dispersal, and have the chance to colour in Tupuārangi.

Our weaving activity is a great way to introduce tamariki to the art of flax weaving, a traditional Māori practice that has been used for generations. With a karakia for collecting harakeke included, your child will learn about the significance of this practice and its connection to Tupuārangi.
