Ngai Tamanuhiri have developed Rangiwaho Ihu ki te Moana 2019 to embrace their cultural contribution to the histories of Aotearoa.
Ngai Tamanuhiri descend from waka people the illustrious navigators who, for many centuries, journeyed across the vast Moananui a Kiwa - Pacific Ocean.
On the 12 October 1769, off the shores of Whareongaonga, a special tuku (gifting) took place between Rangiwaho rangatira, Meke, and Tupaia of Rangiatea, Tahiti on the Endeavour. Rangiwaho also traded with Banks, Cook and the crew of the Endeavour. These taonga are now home for 12 months. Rangiwaho Ihu ki te Moana 2019 honours the ancestors of Rangiwaho and their toi (arts). As their descendants we share 250 of years of resilience in whakakitenga (exhibition) and kōrero (stories).
Please note return bus transport is included. This departs the Gisborne iSite on Grey St.
Rangiwaho Ihu ki te Moana 2019 runs for two weeks.
