Ngā Mahi a Rehia, a Tane Rore: Cultural Activities at Ngā Taiātea
Kapa Haka: Kapa haka is a very popular kaupapa at Ngā Taiātea. We are thankful to the team of tutors, the support whanau and all of the students who participate in kapa haka.
This year Ngā Taiātea won the national championship in Whangarei thanks to the disciplined unity of the students and the creativity of the tutor team. The kapa haka performs throughout the region to support kaupapa in the community, especially events to support the Kingitanga, wider Tainui events and beyond the region where possible.
