Activities

First time celebrating Matariki with my iwi. Ngati Whatua Orakei. Being a keen weaver, i was invited to do workshops around Tamaki with our weavers. To celebrate Matariki, and share knowledge to those who were interested in learning. Having fun and being immersed in the spirit of raranga. Really loved, enjoying the atmosphere of all the activities that were being held. Thats me, on the far right. Dockside Lane. Thanks to the organisers of Ngati Whatua, Mei Hill.

Im maori but have never had the chance to learn correctly. Feel confident in myself when being greeted by other maori members. But to be able to learn without being criticized by other non maori. I grew up in the 70s in a pakeha area with prejudice against maori. So the last 2 years i have really wanted to learn. Know who i am. . . i am maori and proud. And i want to learn even at 53yrs.
