Grove Roots

He hokinga mahara. He hōnore, he korōria ki te Atua.
He maungārongo ki te whenua.
He whakaaro pai ki ngā tāngata katoa.
Ka hoki mahara atu ki a Parihaka i tēnei wā. Te rā i pāhuatia ai te kāenga rā e ngā hoia!
Whakanuia te tohu o te Raukura,
ko tōna kaupapa ko te arohanui
ki te tangata.
Today back in 1881 armed colonial forces invaded Parihaka. At the time our rangatira Te Whiti & Tohu peacefully resisted. Our waiata Poropiti Māori was inspired by these actions. Here is our waiata featured on a Māori Television series called Tounge Tied.
