Natasha | Matariki 2021

Matariki Puanga, on this morning i was standing up Te Rerenga Wairua beginning our hīkoi for the Stop SNA Survey. Not only working alongside Reuben Taipari but also meeting a Facebook friend and sharing that experience with her and her daughter and moko. We began our journey the night before at Reuben in Ahipara, and finished our hīkoi 11th June in Kaikohe. It was a very exciting day for us all for the kaupapa and the fact we had the honour of following in Dame Whina Cooper footsteps even got to stop in Pangaru and her daughter and whānau came to Kaikohe with us.
