Paper Cloak

Te Tauraka Waka a Maui Marae, Makaawhio Runanga, South Westland. Feb 2009. Ajr
Our whirlwind trip from Christchurch took us to Hokonui Marae in Gore and then on to Haast and the very beautiful new Te Tauraka Waka a Maui Marae, which opened at Bruce Bay for the Makaawhio Runanga in 2005. I loved this paper korowai (cloak) displayed on the wall - which was made by local tamariki (children) at Jacob's River School as a koha (gift) for the marae when it opened. I'll be featuring a lot more from Makaawhio as soon as I have my photos sorted. www.makaawhio.maori.nz
