Matapuna o te Aroha

 MATAPUNA O TE AROHA, is the fulfillment of many generations of dreams. Throughout the generations, the overall moemoea has been for a safe haven, a refuge, a gathering place, for our mokopuna and whānau a kaupapa. A sheltered place for their homes and families in this ever-changing world.

This land has lain here in his family’s stewardship (Wi Pere Trust) for at least 9 generations awaiting this day.  We acknowledge all who supported us on this journey, especially those dearly loved ones, now no longer with us, who caught the vision along with us, helping make this dream possible.
