Whānau gathered at what used to be named Te Waipounamu Māori Heritage Centre for the launch of Waewae Pounamu. The afternoon was spent with Ngāti Waewae whānau who were joined by Tā Mark Solomon and colleagues from the Ngāi Tahu Roadshow that was held in town that evening. We welcome the vibrant new look for Waewae Pounamu.
