A belated congratulations to Matiu Payne who was appointed Te Ihu Takiwā regional manager (Auckland/Northland) by Te Wānanga o Aotearoa. He was supported by friends and whānau at his pōhiri in Māngere on 23 March.

This is a wonderful opportunity for Matiu and his whānau and a great recognition of his skills and talents. Although this takes him further away from us, we wish him well with his position.

Matiu and Tā Tipene O’Regan.
