Toi Whātua

Ko tātou te kauaka o ō tātou tūpuna. Ko tātou hei whakaawe i te reanga hou kia rangatira te kawea o ngā taonga tuku iho We are the living vessels of our ancestors. We will inspire the next generation to be outstanding ambassadors for the treasures of Ngāti Whātua

Toi Whātua leads the implementation of programmes to further our culture and identity aspirations across four areas: Reo, Tikanga, Tāpere and Whakaata.

Toi Reo is a comprehensive reo programme that can cater for all reo levels from beginners through to advanced.

Toi Tikanga celebrates tikanga, traditions and narratives that perpetuate the identity of Ngāti Whātua

Toi Tāpere brings together the celebration and activation of kapahaka, mau rākau, contemporary waiata and theatre. .

Toi Whakaata elevates and energises Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei narrative through mahi toi across our rohe.
