THIS IS AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE COLLECTIVE OF WHANAU AND HAPU OF TE KURA KAUPAPA MAORI O RANGIAWNIA
Whānau from Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Rangiawhia are devastated at the Minister of Education Hekia Parata's decision to close the school this week.
The long-awaited decision on the future of this school has been keenly anticipated, but unfortunately it's not the preferred outcome.
Whānau spokesperson Joe Petera says, “Whānau are saddened at today's announcement because this is the senior total immersion school in our district. Irrespective, we vow to keep our kura open and that the challenge for us.”
Tēnā koutou,
The Court of Appeal today issued its decision on the Waitangi Tribunal refusing to give Mangatū Incorporation (of Te Tairāwhiti) and Ngāti Kahu binding recommendations over Crown Forest and State Owned Enterprise lands in both our territories.
The 37 page Court of Appeal’s decision upheld the two decisions already issued by the High Court ordering the Tribunal to rehear Mangatū’s and then Ngati Kahu's applications for binding recommendations.
Whanau please get the word out urgently please. Paralytic toxin warning on all shellfish between Rarawa Beach to Whakapouaka ( Cape Karikari) including Houhoura and Rangaunu harbours. This map shows the affected area and while we are raising questions with MPI and other agencies as to how this has been able to happen, right now the critical thing is to get the word out to our people that one of our staple and traditional Kai sources is unsafe.
Attached is a summary of official information showing the Crown's divide and rule tactics in Ngāti Kahu.
The Crown's purpose is to have Ngāti Kahu accept its 2013 offer to fully and finally settle all Ngāti Kahu Tiriti o Waitangi caims.
The Crown and its officials have been careful to exclude any information relating to Ngati Kahu's successful court case against the Waitangi Tribunal or our application for binding recommendations.
