Big ups to the weather gods for providing a perfect evening for this year's Matariki Tamatea celebrations - huge crowds enjoyed the passionate kapa haka and singers' entertainment and excellent variety of delicious food trucks, the treasured kaumatua sipping on hot soup in their suitably warmed gazebo - the evening ended with a highly anticipated awesome fireworks display! Congrats Te Taiwhenua o Tamatea for bring us another fabulous festival!

The camera got a bit of cool community action today,....
Started the morning with EPIC Youth Worker Ari and the awesome Inspire Youth Council crew dishing out stacks of pancakes and hot milos at EPIC's College Breakfast Club - What a great way for Rangatahi to start their school day!!

Followed by the Te Rongo o Whatumā Accord signing at the Whatumā Lake boatshed, Waipukurau, so good to see people gather to witness progress being made towards the focused vision of restoration and reconnection.
Signatories committing to support and collaboration with Dr Roger Maaka on behalf of e Rongo o Whatumā followed by representatives from HB Regional Council, Mayor Will from CHB District Council and DOC .
Next community planting day coming up soon, come and check it out if you haven't already (and bring your spade!) 😎🙌🏼😎
