Topic; Matariki (Maori New Year) should be a public holiday
I agree with this because it can give the people that do celebrate this time to do so and have family and friends over. I also think it would a kind of respected to give them the day off to celebrate. There are so many people that do celebrate this and most of them do not get time to celebrate what they believe in because they are so busy with work or school. This is why I think Matariki should be a public holiday.
