2.matariki stars mean the start of the moari new year . 

3.I found out that some people think that there are 9 stars on the other hand some other people

think there are 7 stars . So I found out . The answer is both .

In this story there is this class and they are celebrating matariki in taranaki . They do all kinds of different

things like a hangi. When they do the hangi the children at taranaki school are in charge of it .
