A huge mihi to the 3 incredible kapa who will proudly represent us at Matatini ki Hopuhopu 2027!
Te Raranga Whanui are gleaming of absolute pride for you all.
To every performer who took to the stage, ka nui te mihi! How beautiful it is to understand and be part of the mammoth task of allowing our unique rohe to send 3 deserving teams home.
Although we didn’t advance to the big dance this round, we are humbled to always be reminded of the bigger picture - through our babies singing louder than we do, our natural embodiment of whanautanga, the way crowds are drawn and our ever growing kete of knowledge overflowing. Our imperfections, achievements, highs, lows, blood, sweat and mental challenges continue to shape us, and we are ever so proud of seeing them out to the death.
To our unwavering supporters, thank you. To our dedicated team - let’s have a hui.. cos being the 7th most brilliant team in Australia is a pretty cool badge 🙌🏽
