Whakawhānaungatanga Kapa Haka Hui Ahurei

The Bay of Islands International Academy would like you to consider this message as a request for your tautoko and support in our up and coming ‘Whakawhanaungatanga Kapahaka Hui Ahurei’

We as a School have identified the decline in community connection due to the pandemic and the restrictions it has entailed. It has caused separation amongst us. Therefore, we as a School feel the need to bring unity (hononga) back into our community (hapori) and into all our schools within Te Riu o Ngati Rehia.

Our goal for the event is to uphold and teach the Maatauranga of our tupuna and to celebrate the true meaning of whakawhanaungatanga (community unity), our greatest treasure being our people. Ko te mea nui o te ao he tangata.

Our goal with this event is to create an annual event which each school will take turns at hosting.

Our vision for the celebration is listed below.

Create an engaging event that will be inviting, full of joy and fun exploring new experiences and Matauranga Maori.

  • Marae Tikanga
  • Pūrākau / Stories
  • Waiata / songs
  • Manaakitanga
  • Kaitiakitanga
  • Māramatanga
The schedule of performance is below:
