Pakeke Wellness Day

Rongomaiwahine are humble people, deriving from our caring and nurturing treatment of others. This characteristic is embedded into our wairua and is exemplified through kawa. To treat our manuhiri and whānau well is worth more to us than a flash house.

Wellness Days are held fortnightly at the Mahia Hauora building at Mahia Beach.

Facilitated by our Community Connector Helena McGregor a safe space has been created for our Pakeke and Kaumatua. Some very rich kōrero come from these days not to mention the learnings, fun and laughter.

Our Pakeke and Kaumatua were able to share Christmas celebrations and create beautiful memories.

A big mihi to Kahungunu Exective for providing the space. Thank you to everyone that has supported this awesome kaupapa, Rongomaiwahine Iwi Trust Kaimahi and most of all our beautiful group.

If you are wanting to join please contact Helena McGregor on 021453231.

From all of us EARLY XMAS GREETINGS
