Rāhui Lifted

Rāhui Lifted

Kōrihi mai ngā manu o Tītīokura
Tākiri mai te ata ki runga i a tātou
Kua hīkina e Hineuru te rāhui ki te awa o Mōhaka
Ka wātea ka ao ka awatea!

As the manu of Tītīokura
Signal the dawn of a new day
The rāhui over our awa of Mōhaka is lifted.
The way is clear dawn beckons a new day!

Ngā mihi, nā

Rāhui

Rāhui

Today, a blessing took place at the location where our whanaunga drowned on our awa Mōhaka.

A rāhui has been placed from Glen Falls to Te Kooti’s Bridge. This will be in place until further notice. We will communicate to whānau when the rāhui has been lifted.

E te iwi, please be safe over the Christmas period out, in or on the water.

April brings with her a wealth of skill, knowledge and experience within the iwi, hapū and hapori development sectors, having worked in Senior Executive Roles over many years. She is passionate about being at the heart of the people, and when asked, Ms Hetaraka said:

“It was an absolute humbling moment to be appointed the CE of Hineuru Iwi Trust. What I look forward to is ‘weaving whanau aspirations’ for future generations.”

The Trust looks forward to seeing many of iwi at the upcoming AGM.
