Ōnuku Marae hosted 96 volunteers from the Student Volunteer Army wanting to support our marae and community for two days in September. Ōnuku whānau felt privileged to be able to share our cultural heritage with the next generation of New Zealand’s young professionals. We now have plans to make this an annual event for the Student Army. A big thank you must go to the organisers who made this happen and to our whānau who also volunteered their time and worked tirelessly… great effort and well done.
