OUR COMMUNITY OF LEARNING - KĀHUI AKO
Ohinemuri Community of Learning
Ngā Puke ki Hauraki
Ka tarehua,
E mihi ana ki te whenua
E tangi ana ki te tangata
Ko Moehau kei waho
Ko Te Aroha kei roto
Ko Tīkapa te moana
Ko Hauraki te whenua
Tihei Mauri ora
I cry for the people
Te Aroha mountain inland
Moehau mountain to the coast
Tikapa is the sea
Hauraki is the land
The hills of Hauraki
stand enshrouded in the distance
I greet the land
This is from a speech said on the Marae by a Kaumatua to identify that they are from Hauraki.
