We hope you enjoy your stay and take the time to explore, get to know us and our beautiful landscape, history and people. The Whanganui River, Te Awa o Whanganui, is the longest navigable river in New Zealand and an integral part of our district, shaping the development, settlement and history of both early Māori and European settlers. Blessed with an abundance of natural attributes, unspoilt native forest, a temperate climate with above average sunshine hours and stunning west coast beaches, Whanganui has attracted visitors and residents over the ages. We are big enough to entertain with a multitude of outdoor, cultural activities and events and yet small enough to keep it real. Our manaakitanga (hospitality) is legendary and we keep it casual and friendly. You may notice the two different spellings – Wanganui and Whanganui. The district has used both spellings since the mid-1800’s as local iwi pronounciation makes the ‘wh’ sound similar to ‘what’ and ‘where.’ European settlers then wrote the name as they heard it. -

Sister Makareta Tawaroa
Freire at the flaxroots: analysis and action in Aotearoa Sister Makareta Tawaroa Te Rongo o te Poi te whare karakia Taritariwhioi te whenua Kaiwhaiki te marae Nga Paerangi te iwi Whanganui te awa Tihei Mauriora My name is Takahia Makareta Tawaroa. I was born and bred at Taritariwhioi, Kaiwhaiki Pa on the lower reaches of the Whanganui River in a small, close-knit community of about 200 people. There were five in our family, four girls and one boy. My mother was Raina Kahukura, a warm, handsome woman who was steeped in the knowledge of our old people and their ways and was a great singer and performer. Mum was also a great orator and a keen compeEtor at the Hui Aranga. For many years she competed in the Senior Oratory and achieved a lot of success. My father was Te Kohiroa Tawaroa Tetana a hardworking man who spent hours in the garden, planEng, weeding and producing acres of kai, Maori potato, Maori corn, kamokamo, kumara and pumpkin. One of my earliest memories is of planEng rows and rows of corn alongside him. In 1965 at the age of 20, I joined the Congregaon of the Sisters of St Joseph of Nazareth. I had a strong Catholic upbringing and mum was a devout churchgoer. Our family recited the Rosary most nights and we aended Mass on Sundays. I received catechism lessons from Father Cook who came to Upokongaro School every Friday from St Mary’s parish. He would bring his tuning fork because he loved to hear us sing. His favourite hymn was Mo Maria. -

Perspectives
CHAPTER 3 PERSPECTIVES 3.1 Introduction To background the issues before us, this chapter considers perspectives about claimant views and the river in more recent times. It covers the claimants’ beliefs, recollections, experiences, and hopes that deåne the nature of their current association with the river, their concerns over despoliation, and their claim for the restoration of their traditional authority. Their views, and additional material on river use and degradation, explain the concerns that gave rise to the claim. A Pakeha perspective follows as a reminder of other interests in the river and other opinions on its management. 3.2 The First People 3.2.1 Past voices Atawhai (Archie) Taiaroa, the chairman of the Whanganui River Maori Trust Board, opened the people’s submissions, and following Maori tradition, honoured the forebears before addressing the living. He referred to the longstanding nature of the claim and stated that the Whanganui iwi: are embarrassed after 118 years of making applications to diäerent forums, to diäerent levels of government, trying to prove who they are, trying to say ‘This is our tupuna awa, this is our ancestor’, and to come again today to make the same presentation. And as such they are saying, ‘This is it’.1 The claim, he added, was a memorial not only to the past leaders ‘but to the many who have passed through the 118 years’. We thus recall the words of Te Keepa Rangihiwinui, one of the årst former river leaders to argue that the old Maori laws for the river should still apply, in a letter of 1876 to the Whanganui Harbour and River Conservation Board: 1. -
