Anō te pai te āhuareka o te noho o ngā teina me ngā tuākana i runga i te whakaaro kotahi.

Kāi Tahu Road Show ki Ōtaki

Ko te whakaaro kotahi i tēnei kaupeka ko te “Road Show.” Ōtaki whānau were privileged to have some of our kaimahi from Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu and many other Kāi Tahu whānau here for the Road Show.
The interest exceeded our expectations with 80-90 people present for the majority of the day. The presentations were informative and generated lots of discussions. The stalls, including Whai Rawa, the Whakapapa Unit, Ngāi Tahu Funds, Kotahi Mano Kāika, Events and Tribal Economies, were well attended – there was a crowd around each of the stalls for much of the time.

Kāi Tahutaka and whanaukataka were highlights.

Ka rere ngā mihi ki a koutou katoa i tae ā-tinana mai ki te whakanui, ki te whakapakari i tō tātou iwi. Ko te taukaea aroha ka mau ake tonu e.
