1.0 INTRODUCTION

In 2014, the organising committee of Te Rā o Te Raukura festival (Te Rā) asked Regional Public Health (RPH) to work with them to develop a survey for the 2015 festival. This report provides a profile of the 2015 Te Rā festival on Sunday 1 February, and reports on the results of the Sunday festival survey completed by 388 festival goers at the event.

2.0 BACKGROUND

Te Rā o Te Raukura is the premier annual Māori festival for the wider region. Every year 'Te Rā' attracts up to 20,000 people to Te Whiti Park in Waiwhetū, . The organisers plan the event as a family oriented music based festival. Te Rā organisers invite the wider community to experience a range of entertainment, activities and services in the spirit of Arohanui Ki Te Tangata – goodwill to all men. This year marks the twenty-first birthday of Te Rā which, over time, has grown into a two day festival that includes regional kapa haka performances on the Saturday as well as the traditional Sunday festival.

The Sunday festival is centred around a large stage with a full day’s programme of renowned local acts and chart topping artists. The surrounding park is zoned with a wide variety of family oriented activities. There are zones for health, art, education and youth along with amusements rides, food and craft stalls. It is an alcohol and smoke free festival and a sugar free drinks policy was introduced in 2014.

The name of this event, Te Rā o Te Raukura, is significant to the people of Waiwhetū and the tangata whenua in the . The 'Raukura' was used as a symbol of peace, love and harmony by the prophet Te Whiti-o-Rongomai at Parihaka. He and fellow prophet, Tohu Kākahi, led their people to passive resistance and patient obedience as an armed constabulary invaded the peaceful village of Parihaka on 5 November 1881. Te Rā o Te Raukura commemorates this day and celebrates unity in Lower Hutt and the wider Wellington region.

3.0 PURPOSE

Representatives of the organising committee of Te Rā worked with Regional Public Health advisors and analysts to define the purpose of the report. This involved creating an overview model of foundation areas and the festival aims and outcomes (Figure 1.), and then further defining the actual festival day activities.

This collaborative process led to the Te Rā organisers identifying and confirming that they would like the report to profile the festival day, and for the survey to find out:

1. Who attends Te Rā, how they heard about it and where they came from. 2. What the Te Rā festival means to attendees 3. The level of support for the overall aims of Te Rā 4. What activities the festival goers liked about Te Rā, and what could be done better 5. The level of support for Te Rā festival kaupapa and policies.

5.0 SURVEY METHODOLOGY

The survey results were gathered through a self-administered questionnaire given to festival goers to fill in, with access to help from a trained data collector standing nearby if required. See appendix A for the questionnaire.

Survey group

The survey group included festival goers only (stall holders, acts or organisers weren’t included). It was identified that 378 completed and useable questionnaires were required to reach a 95 per cent confidence level of plus or minus five per cent (Salant and Dillman, 1994). The final sample achieved was 385.

Data collectors

A team of 12 were selected and trained to collect data from participants on the day of the festival. Collectors included eight community based personnel, a public health analyst, a public health advisor and two public health student cadets. The community personnel were recruited with assistance from Te Rā committee leaders and paid in vouchers for their time by Regional Public Health. All collectors were given a written brief on their role, along with a short training to ensure standard processes were used for selection. Each was provided a shoulder bag, clipboard, forms, pens, suburb lists (Appendix B) and giveaway prizes for survey participants.

Systematic sample selection

To ensure a systematic selection was achieved:

1. Two teams were set up at the major exit points of the festival from 11am – giving two hours for attendees to experience the festival. Every tenth person (over the age of 11) leaving the park was asked to fill in the questionnaire. If they declined, the collector would continue to ask any person until one accepted. Every hour a count was made of the number of questionnaires filled and progress against the end target of 378. 2. At 1pm it was identified progress was slow so teams of two were allocated to five designated zones to ask every tenth person (sweeping from one end of the zone to the other) to complete the questionnaire.

Data management, analysis and presentation of findings

Epi Info 7 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014) was the system used to enter, manage and analyse data. A senior public health analyst completed the analysis. A variety of different data presentation options i.e. graphing styles and analysis, were presented in draft to leaders of the Te Rā committee for feedback before final findings were put into the report.

7.0 SUMMARY

“Loved this festival since I was little”

This survey highlights the appeal of Te Rā to a wide audience, particularly Māori and young people. Te Rā has earned a loyal following and is an event that people associate with whānau/family, fun, food and the stage entertainment.

The survey showed a majority of people coming to Te Rā accepted and supported policies in place to provide a healthy environment.

There was very positive feedback about the quality of the entertainment, food, attractions and health and learning areas.

The only major theme coming out of the question about what could be done better was cheaper prices, particularly for the rides.

Things to consider for the future

Although people did recognise that Te Rā was a place to learn about health and education opportunities, the survey findings suggest these took second place in people’s minds behind the food and entertainment, and were not as memorable. If health and education is an important focus it might be useful to think about ways to strengthen this in the future.

One interesting finding was that the youth tent received significantly higher ratings from older youth (20-24) compared to those who were 15-19 years or under 15 years old. In the future it might be useful to consider ways to make the youth tent more appealing to those under 20 years of age, with one suggestion from a youth being “Bring in competitions etc dance battle”.

Overall, Te Rā was a success. Nine out of ten people rated it as excellent or very good and the final comments from the survey express the thanks of festival goers.

“Mauri Ora” “Tu Meke” “Keep it up and keep it free” “Another successful year! Nga mihi nui kia koutou te Rā komiti” “Great organisation. Workers/helpers work tirelessly. Whānau atmosphere. Event where everyone is happy”
