TRONK AGM / Tihei Kahungunu Waiata Wānanga August 2009

TĪHEI KAHUNGUNU te whakataukii o te rā!

Kā mutu te hui ko tēnei. E rua ngā take o te rā, kātahi ko te Hui-ā-Tau ā TRONK, kā rua ki te wānanga i ngā waiata ō te kainga.

Te Hui ā Tau ā Te Runanga o Ngāti Kahungunu ki Te Whanganui ā Tara (TRONK)

I whakatakotohia ē TRONK i ngā purongo ā te tiamana, ā te kaitiaki putea, ā te poari, e pā ana ki ngā mahi i mahia. He maha ngā pātai me ngā kōrero ā te minenga. I te mutunga iho, i pai te minenga ki te mahi mē te pirangi kia whakahaere tonutia te kaupapa.

I pōtihia ngā mema hou o te poari. Na te kaha tautoko o te minenga, he tekau ngā mema poari i tohua hei kawe i te manuka. Nā i oti te hui ā tau i te kotahi haora noa iho, aue te pai.

Kua rongonuitia ā Ngāti Kahunugunu mo āna waiata, karakia, korero ataahua. Nā whai anō ka puta ko te taonga kōrero ā "Tihei Kahungunu" I wānangatia te hui i ngā waiata, i ngā kōrero hītori me ngā kōrero ō ēnei rā hei kīnaki mō te kaupapa.

Nā te tiamana o te Rūnanga ō Ngāti Kahungunu ā Ngahiwi Tomoana, te wānanga i whakahaere. Nāna mātou i whakakata, i whakakoa, i whakaaroha ki ngā waiata ō te kainga.

A kāti i oti te hui i runga i te whakahau, ka tū he hui anō.

Ahakoa te makariri me te koroheketanga ā ētahi i hui te minenga i runga i te wairua harikoa. I haere mai ngā kaumatua nō ngā topito ē whā o te hāpori, nō ngā hapu, iwi maha ō Aotearoa me te Moana Nui ā Kiwa. I reka ai ngā taringa i te waiata, i kii pai te puku i te hangi, kā mutu i kanikani ngā kaumātua anō nei he kāhui whetu, kō rātou.

Te Runanga o Ngati Kahungunu ki te Whanganui a Tara
Strategic Plan 2008

Background

On March 16th, 2008, Te Runanga o Ngati Kahungunu ki te Whanganui a Tara held its AGM. At the AGM new Trustees were elected and a new Constitution was approved.

The new Trustees held their first meeting on Monday, April 7th. Te Huia Bill Hamilton was elected Chair, Professor Kathie Irwin was elected Deputy Chair. At the first meeting the Trustees took the decision to work within the framework of the Kahungunu 2026 Vision Plan in the development of its strategic plan. The vision, mission and guiding principles of the Kahungunu 2026 Vision Plan were adopted in this plan. Our intention in taking this action was to ensure that Ngati Kahungunu, wherever we reside, are following the same vision.

Process

The Chair led a workshop on strategic planning with the new Trustees. Each person had the chance to share their moemoea and to discuss what should be our priorities in this region in the next six months and the next twelve months.

On May 8th, 2008, the Trustees held their second meeting of the Runanga. At this meeting the ideas generated at the first meeting were prioritised and drafted as the strategies and actions that appear in this draft strategic plan.

The main ideas framing Kahungunu 2026 have been reproduced here to guide and structure our plan. As this is a plan for our first year we have prioritised those areas that we believe we need to move first on in our region. It will take us some years to develop strategies and action plans to enact all of the guiding principles of the Kahungunu 2026 Vision Plan.

He timata tenei.

We are pleased to be able to offer this draft Strategic Plan as an indication of our intention to work productively and with integrity in Te Whanagui a Tara in the pursuit of the Kahungunu 2026 Vision Plan.

Kahungunu Waiata Wananga ki Te Whanganui A Tara

I hui nga uri o Ngati Kahungunu ki Te Whanganui A Tara i te 2nd Haratua 2009 ki te marae o Pipitea ki te whakangungu i nga waiata o te kainga. Na te hia kai a nga uri ki nga korero me nga waitata o Ngati Kahungunu ake, i kii pai te marae. Tata ki te ono tekau te rahi o nga uri i hui tahi, kai tahi, korero tahi i raro i te reo pohiri o Te Runanga o Ngati Kahungunu ki Te Whanganui a Tara e kii ana ko Te Kahungunu Embassy.

I timata te hui ki te kai ki te whakamahana i te tinana me te wairua. Katahi ka tu a Moana Jackson ki te whakaputa korero mo te Foreshore & Seabed review me ana mahi tuhituhi e pa ana ki tenei take nui. Katahi ka whakangungua nga "anthems" o te kainga, ara ko te oriori a Pine Pine Te Kura. Na Aaron "Gooseman" Munroe raua ko Celia Joe nga waiata i whakataki, i whakamarama. I whakakapi te hui i runga i te whakahau ka tu he wananga ano me te tino whakaae a te minenga.
