As Matariki (Māori New Year) approaches, communities across Tauranga, Hamilton, Rotorua, and the Bay of Plenty prepare for a season of remembrance, celebration, and renewal. If your school, Māori organisation, or community group is planning a Matariki event, consider enhancing your decorations with precision CNC-cut wooden designs—beautifully crafted from wood, MDF, or plywood to celebrate this special time.
