Reclamation and Reconnection

Ngāti Māhanga whānau

Integral to realising the vision of the Reclaiming Pūtoetoe project are reclamation workshops with Ngāti Māhanga whānau. Funded by WEL Energy Trust and held at the Raglan Holiday Park Papahua, spots in these workshops filled within hours.

Sustained by delicious kai, space was created for whānau to come together to learn, kōrero, connect and dream.

Whānau walked the whenua, listening, seeing and feeling, as they actively reclaimed and reconnected to their whenua, tūpuna and stories.

“We want people to understand why this whenua matters”
