WHAKATAUKI
“E rere kau mai te awa nui mai te Kāhui Maunga ki Tangaroa, ko au te awa, ko te awa ko au”
The river flows from the mountain to the sea, I am the river, the river is me.
The river gives to you, and you give to the river by keeping it healthy.
“Ko te wai te ora ngā mea katoa”
Water is the life giver of all things.
