WAKA HUIA - MATARIKI KAINGA HOKIA

Kua rua tekau tau te hautapu e moe ana i te ākau o Tokomaru. Tua atu, kua rima whakatipuranga te moko kauae e moe ana i te whakapapa ake o Te Ataakura rāua ko Kēri Pēwhairangi. Heoi anō tā te hapū o Te Whānau a Ruataupare, he whakatinana i te kōrero, ‘Matariki Kāinga Hokia’, kia ora anō ai ēnei tikanga hei painga mō te iwi.
For twenty years the hautapu ceremony has been dormant in Tokomaru Bay. Furthermore, for five generations in a particular branch of the Pewharangi whānau, moko kauae hasn’t been practised. Embodying the theme of Matariki Kāinga Hokia, Te Whānau a Ruataupare are reviving these traditional practises for the well-being of their people.
