Tēnā koe e Friend --



Tēnā katoa tātau i roto i ngā tini whakawai o te wā.  Ko te mate korona e whakararuraru ana i a tātau e noho motu ana ki ngā wā kāinga, heoi mā te ū ki ngā tikanga e ora ai tātau, haere ake nei.



E tangi ana ki ngā mate e hinga tonu ana i te pō, i te ao, e moe, e oki.  Hoki tonu mai ki a tātau te kanohi, tēnā tātau.  E rere ana ngā mihi ki tō tātau Kīngi, ki a Kīngi Tūheitia Pōtatau VII i whakanuia i tōna rā koroneihana ngahuru mā rima i te rāhoroi 21 o Akuhata nei.



Kia ora whānau



As the motu returns into what life is like under lockdown, we though it was a good chance to connect in with you and check that everyone is well.



Lockdown 2.0 still has a heap of unknown factors but it’s also a chance for us to share some of the key things to ensure we are looking after ourselves to ensure we protect our whakapapa.



To help us through the lockdown period, our comms team has set up a social media LIVE programme called Māori On Lock. We will be running daily sessions on our facebook platforms throughout the week. You can find the schedule here Māori on Lock <[link removed]>



As we all know, we will be informed of the status of our lockdown this Tuesday 24 August, but no matter what happens, we must continue to #ProtectOurWhakapapa and remember that Level 4 means:



- Stay home (unless you are an essential worker);

- Maintain your bubble and don’t mix with others;

- Safe recreational activities like walking and running in your local area is allowed;

- No gatherings are allowed including: hui, events, tangihanga or funerals;

- Select one person to be your shopper; and

- Check in on your whānau or neighbour by giving them a phone call or calling out from over the fence to check they are ok.



Remember, you can always reach out to your local Whānau Ora provider, Iwi Office or other local entities in your rohe to ask for help.  Please reach out for help if you need it or even ring our MPs on:



- Rawiri on: 0800WAIARIKI

- Debbie on: 0800WHAEADEB



Stay safe whānau and you can renew or become a member here <[link removed]> or koha here <[link removed]>.  We are also revamping our website and will have a volunteer page soon.
