Take a bow, Makaira Berry and all the artists and production team who contributed to giving our rangatahi from Waipareira an experience of a lifetime!

Produced by Crescendo, and brought to life by Bella Kalolo, Donson Pique, Nikau Grace, Mareikura Nathan, Laughton Kora, Rei and our Waipareira rangatahi.

Herena, Te Rina, Ginia, Rainbow, Daesharne and Destiny - TOO MUCH!!!

Like Jole and Harley said last night at the launch, “To see the rangatahi on the big screen smiling like that, being happy is what it’s all about! Dreaming of what can be comes easier then!”

Hawaiki Hou is LIVE now - go watch it on YouTube (link in bio)

I really love what I get to do and share, I get to share my people at their best I have been fortunate enough to see these rangatahi grow using kapa haka and it’s very touching to see the change. I’m greatful to be apart of an amazing crew who have taught me and continue to teach me their matauranga. I’m beyond greatful.
