Some of our trustees and representatives took a hikoi during their January hui to help officially open the refurbished Freeman’s cottage. Situated in the DOC carpark at Tuhuroa (Farewell Spit), the name bestowed by Manawhenua Ki Mohua is Te Whare Whakatā (place of rest).
Recently we celebrated our Motueka children who performed at Te Huinga Whetū 2022, where they qualified for the national Te Mana Kuratahi competition next year.
An education symposium to be hosted by iwi in Whakatū in October is the first step in what is hoped is a new chapter in celebrating and promoting educational excellence for Māori.
Elections for two (2) new trustees in the Te Tau lhu rohe will be held on 30th of September 2022 from 11am to 1pm at the offices of Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Rārua, 15 Kinross Street, Blenheim.
