Karakia for the new playground on Tamatea Street - 28 June 2021

29/6/2021

 
Kia ora koutou katoa,

The new playground at Tamatea Street, on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, was formally opened by kaumatua of Ngāti Tamateatutahi/Ngāti Kawiti on a cold, June morning in 2021.

The karakia blessed the new development, preparing the way for the future enjoyment of this new taonga, by Tamatea Street residents, hapū members and the general public.

Representatives from the Rotorua Lakes Council, Lake Rotoiti Community Association, Te Tahuna Trustees, Hapū members and Construction staff, participated in the ceremony on this cold winters day.

After the formalities, everyone enjoyed a fabulous meal, that was hosted by members of the Hinehopu Golf Club, of which we are incredibly grateful.

​See the short video below of the event.  

Ngā mihi,

Ivor Jones

​Kia Ora Koutou, I’m Ness Patea, Production Manager for AWA Films.  I wanted to touch base with the lease holders and residents of Tamatea Street to let you all know we are planning a web-series shoot from 8th - 12th April 2019. 

We have had a hui with the trustees of Te Tahuna Trust and the Council and have received approval to proceed.  We are planning to build a set at the end of the street in the gravel car-park and of will be removing it at the end of filming.  The build will be commencing
(approx. 1st April) before the shoot starts, and the end of the street will be blocked off (visitors will still have access to Hongi’s track during this time).  We will have a container and a caravan parked up on the site.  We would like to keep our shoot low-key at this stage so we appreciate your discretion.  Please get in touch with me if you have any concerns or questions, we would like to keep the communication channels open!
