Powhiri

Monday 12 October, 8.30 - 9.30am, Victoria Square

The powhiri is a welcoming ritual initiated by the takata whenua. The manuhiri (visitors) are welcomed along with the spirits of the ancestors. Following the powhiri, morning tea will be served in the Exhibition Hall. Kindly sponsored by the Aoraki Region of LIANZA.

Further information about kawa (process), will be posted to the conference website. 

 

Poroporaki

Wednesday 14 October, 3.10pm

Pou in Victoria Square

The poroporoaki is a farewell ceremony, initiated by the visitors and concluded by the hosts. We hope that this poroporoaki will be

an interactive ceremony whereby anybody who has experienced the conference is able to reflect upon their experiences in a formal setting. Often the speech is followed by a waiata (song). This is a chance for manuhiri to thank the takata whenua, and those who have fed them, in both body and mind, during the time of the hui.
