Did the memories go back – WOW!!!!! </p><p>He mihi nui ki a Wharepaea, sharing us these glimpses back to the past.</p><p>2. Shaloh Mitchell’s Business @ Te Papaiouru Marae</p><p>We discussed all around the marae trust, as well as Shaloh’s view of what should happen at Te Papaiouru. The whānau finished up with the suggestion that:</p><p> All are to check out Shaloh’s interview on www.tvnzondemand.co.nz It is probably the best chance to know see & hear Shaloh’s thinking.</p><p> Then respond/share your view to your Te Papaiouru rep.

Te Kuirau Marae (aka Te Rorooterangi marae)</p><p> Candy shared a summary of the marae trustee activities for April.</p><p> It is important that whānau who don’t live in Rotorua – hear how things are going at the marae.

Uncle Bubba’s succession</p><p>Descendents of Tarahina and Te Tai at our hui: Amotawa – Aggie & Ana; Hiriwera – Wharepaea, Rukingi, Anahera, Maukaha</p><p> All had copies of the pānui that was sent out to all descendents of Tarahina & Te Tai. As a whāngai, with no children – Uncle Bubba’s estate, including our Te Kowhai whenua and resources, are being succeeded to people who have no whakapapa to our tāonga. </p><p> We are happy to agree with decisions determined by the descendents of Tarahina and Te Tai at the May 1 hui, Rotorua.</p><p> Each of us who are descendents of Tarahina and Te Tai – will send personal correspondence to Nan/Aunty Maxine sharing our views. </p><p> You can again pass your personal whakaaro to Candy on [email protected] , or to any other of your whānau representing the children of Tarahina and Te Tai: Kereti, Poururu, Wharekiri, Titaha, Amotawa, Hiriwera, Tokia.
