A date with the Stars - Matariki Night to light up EH

Support for Earth Hour's Matariki Night at the Takitumu School grounds continues to attract more wows! As we countdown to the weekend when cities around the world are switching off lights, another of our local churches have confirmed their participation - the mainstream CICC church of Matavera have pledged support and encourages its members to join us in the candle light vigil at the Takitumu school ground for the safety and health of our planet- mother Earth.

Truly this is an awesome event to be a part of, what a legacy to leave behind in the history of this little village! Did you know Matavera aka Rangiatea is the legendary head of Tangi'ia's fish in the Vaka Takitumu; Ngatangi'ia is the midsection and Tei- muri-motia aka Titikaveka is the tail of the fish. yep, in the words of one village elder, it is only fitting that Rangiatea takes the lead for Earth Hour in the Cook Islands because the head must always lead the rest of the tribes.....

Don't forget, Matariki Night - you and your candle have a date with the stars! 8pm Saturday 27th March.
