I think that Matariki should be a public holiday. My reason is that it is the Maori new year and is very important to the Maori and their culture.
I agree with the idea of having an holiday about Matariki. One reason that I think that way is that we respect our own new year and make it a public holiday why don’t we let the Maori have their own new year. Another reason is that as well as being their new year it is also their guide to when they need to do things like farming and hunting.
Reasons that we shouldn't do it is that we already have a new years celebration we could just end up making it back to a normal day. Also it is expensive to make a public holiday and not as safe.
All in all I think that we should have a holiday for Matariki as a public holiday because it is important.
That is my writing. Do you like it?
