Hui-ā-Tau 2014 update

On Friday 21 November at 6am, Ngāti Waewae will be opening their marae in a dawn ceremony; this will be followed by a 10am pōwhiri.

The following day, Saturday 22 November, starting at 9.30am, Hui-ā-Tau (HaT) will take place in the whare tīpuna at Arahura Marae, Hokitika.

Hubs
This year we are again offering whānau who are unable to attend HaT, the opportunity to participate at one of three hubs, where a live video broadcast will be available.

Satellite hubs will be located at Waihōpai, Ōtākou (to be confirmed) and Ōtautahi (to be confirmed). [Read more…]

Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua hosted Ngāi Tahu for Hui-ā-Tau on Saturday 23 November. The meeting was also streamed live to Ōtākou Marae, Arahura Marae and Murihiku Marae so whānau could connect via a web-link. The one-day event was all about the kōrero (conversations), with members hearing short presentations, followed by questions and answers. Around two hundred whānau attended Arowhenua, and another 100 participated via the satellite hubs, with everyone enjoying the catch-up.

While the kōrero is the focus of this year’s Hui-ā-Tau, whānau made the most of the occasion and the Kotahi Mano Kāika team organised a te reo softball tournament in Temuka. Three teams headed to the dugout following the hui and played softball in a full immersion te reo environment. [Read more…]

Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua, in conjunction with Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu, invite you to attend Hui-ā-Tau 2013, which will be held at Te Hapa o Niu Tireni, Arowhenua Marae, on Saturday 23 November starting at 10am.

This is a great chance to catch up with whānau and to hear first-hand from Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu about the achievements of the year and the plans in place for future programmes and development. Just as importantly, this one-day hui provides a chance for us to kōrero and interact with our tribal leaders. Even though this year’s hui is to be streamed into satellite hubs and available via the internet, many whānau will want to attend the “report back” and “open forum” session in person so we encourage you to plan and book any accommodation you might need early.

Remember whānau, that under the new format we hold Hui-ā-Tau every second year. This one-day event is all about the kōrero, so the focus will be on allowing members to hear some short presentations, followed by questions and answers from all around the takiwā. There will be no stalls.

The Hui-ā-Tau at Arowhenua will be filmed and streamed live into satellite hubs at Ōtākou Marae, Dunedin; Waihōpai Marae, Invercargill and Arahura Marae, Hokitika.

We really want you to think about making the journey to Te Hapa o Niu Tireni, Arowhenua Marae, to help us create the live atmosphere that makes these occasions so special. If you can’t do that then think about travelling to one of the satellite hubs to share the event with whānau. There will be kai at the Hui-ā-Tau and the satellite hubs.

Whānau will be able to phone, email or text questions through on the day, but given that we can get more questions than can be answered in one session, we encourage you to register your question so that it can be given priority. You can register your questions by sending them to [email protected] or by phoning Tina Woodgate on 0800 KAI TAHU (0800 524 8248).
