Kingi Kiriona | Ngāti Ruanui, Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Apa

Ko Kingi Kiriona he kaikōrero, he kaihaka, he kaitito, he kaiako, he kaiwhakapāoho āno hoki. I tōna titiro ki te reo Māori me te ao Māori i kite nei ia he rautaki mō te whakawhanake i te hauora, i te oranga tonutanga o te iwi Māori.

He mea poipoi tēnei i a Kingi ki te hanga ētahi ara e puta atu te reo Māori me te ahurea Māori ki ētahi wāhi, inā noa atu ki ngā pakihi, ki te ao pāpāho, ki te rāngai whakatakotoranga, ki te rāngai ako, ki te rāngai hauora anō hoki. 

I te tau 2023, i kopoua a Kingi hei Tumu Whakarae Tuarua, Mātauranga Māori ki Te Aka Whaiora. Ko tana tūranga he mea whakarite kia whakatairanga ētahi ara hauora Māori e hāngai pū ana ki te mātauranga Māori, te reo, me te tikanga Māori.

Kua tata ki te 100 ngā waiata me ngā haka whakaputaina e Kingi. Ko ētahi kua whakamahia hei rauemi ako mō ngā tamariki i ngā kura puta noa i Aotearoa. 

Inā tata nei, kopoua anō a Kingi ki tana tūranga tuatoru ki te poari whakahaere o Whakaata Māori.
