    TE PUNA REO O NGĀ KĀKANO HE PUNA REO HE PUNA ORANGA WHĀNAU Impact of an urban puna reo on the health and wellbeing of tamariki and their whānau June 2018 First published in 2018 by Te Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano Charitable Trust 251 Queens Drive Wellington 6022 ISBN 978-0-473-43960-6 Copyright © Te Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano Charitable Trust All images © Te Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano Report design: Kaaterina Kerekere of KE Design, www.kedesign.co.nz This report is copyright. Apart from fair dealing for the purpose of private study, research, criticism or review, as permitted under the Copyright Act, no part may be reproduced by any process without the prior permission of the publisher. A catalogue record for this book is available from the National Library of New Zealand. Abstract e Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano provides a kaupapa Māori early childhood Tlearning experience where tamariki aged from under one year to six years are exposed to mātauranga Māori on a daily basis with the aim of supporting them to flourish and become culturally confident. In an urban location, whānau are challenged with fostering connections to their tūrangawaewae and maintaining their cultural identity. Through a Māori world view, the concept of health and wellbeing is commonly understood to be alignment of one’s taha wairua, taha hinengaro, taha tinana and taha whānau. The absence of cultural identity can have an adverse effect on health and wellbeing. This research, funded by the Health Research Council of New Zealand, considers the impact that Te Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano has had on the health and wellbeing of tamariki and their whānau, and it identifies aspects of the experience at Te Puna Reo o Ngā Kākano that are fundamental to facilitating health and wellbeing within a kaupapa Māori early childhood environment.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 My name is Karl Whare Tipeti Flavell. I am the current Manager Te Taiao (Environment and Heritage) for Ngaati Te Ata. 1.2 I hold a Bachelor of Environmental and Resource Planning Degree from Massey University. I am experienced and have practiced in the field of Maori (Iwi) Environmental Planning for 27 years. I was taught the tikanga (practices), environmental lore and kaitiakitanga by my elders. 1.3 Ngaati Te Ata lodged a submission on the Proposed Waikato District Plan which states: “Pokeno: Ngati Te Ata does not support areas of inclusion where land is steep and undevelopable without major earthworks. Ngati Te Ata does not support the inclusion of land that can have impact on the Whangamarino wetland RAMSAR site, or any other significant ecological area. Neither is the inclusion of Pa supported within proposed future urban or Industrial zones.” 1.4 Ngaati Te Ata also lodged a further submission in opposition to the submission by Havelock Village Limited seeking to rezone land at 5 Yashili Drive, 88 Bluff Road, 242 and 278 Bluff Road, Pokeno to enable residential development.

Many changes over the years have not always been in the best interests of the tribe. Such change has often resulted in the continual degradation of many of the tribe’s natural and physical resources, waahi tapu sites, and other taonga. 1.2 Ngati Te Ata descend from Waikato- Tainui and Te Waiohua. It is through these associations that connect us to the Kingseat, Patumahoe and Mauku area. With particular regard to the Manukau Harbour and its many tributaries. 1.3 The New Zealand Wars Author: James Cowan explanations the place-name of Patumahoe: The chief Huritini, of the Ngaiwi or Waiohua Tribe, of the Tamaki district, came to these parts to make war upon Hiku-rere-roa and Te Ranga-rua, the leaders of the Ngati-Tamaoho Tribe, six generations ago.

  • The Analogous Boundaries of Ngaati Mahuta, Waikato-Tainui and Kiingitanga
    THE ANALOGOUS BOUNDARIES OF NGAATI MAHUTA, WAIKATO-TAINUI AND KIINGITANGA MARAMA MURU-LANNING University of Auckland Ko Taupiri te Maunga, Ko Waikato te Awa, Ko Pootatau te Tangata Taupiri is the Mountain, Waikato is the River, Pootatau is the Man. (Note: In this article I indicate vowel length, following local Waikato usage, by doubling the vowel, instead of using the macron, as in Pootatau above.) I grew up at Tuurangawaewae Marae on the banks of the Waikato River. I knew about its flooding, fogs, currents, high and low water lines, about the safe places for swimming and the less dangerous places to jump into it from bridges. I collected köura ‘crayfish’ and tuna ‘eels’. I listened to the oral traditions about local taniwha ‘river guardians’. The river was just part of the way we lived, not something to be controlled or owned. Yet, the Waikato River has a long history of people making claims to it, including Treaty of Waitangi claims by Mäori for ownership and guardianship rights. The claiming process has most recently culminated in Waikato-Tainui and the Crown signing a 2009 Deed of Settlement for the river. This deed established a new co-governance structure for the river with equal Mäori and Crown representation. But what has also transpired from the agreement is the emergence of a new guard of Mäori decision-makers who have challenged and displaced the traditional Kiingitanga leaders as the main power-brokers of the river. A key observation of the situation is that the Waikato River lies at the heart of Waikato Mäori tribal identity and chiefly power and is, therefore, a key focus of the ongoing local struggles for prestige and mana.
