Waiata Tautoko

Waiata tautoko is an important tikanga as a way to acknowledge and thank a speaker or presenter. 

For our two pōwhiri we will use He Hōnore and Tai Aroha, please familiarise yourself with these waiata.

Here are a few for you to become familiar with before the event if you wish to do so.  The link will take you to a  page that has the words, a translation and a recording of the waiata.
