Toi Tangata CEO Megan Tunks and He Pī Ka Rere leader
Darrio Penetito-Hemara were in Tauranga alongside Ata Ruawai and Dillon Te Kani this week.
Ata works in the under-fives space and Dillon is a representative for The Bay of Plenty District Health Board (BOPDHB). The group were part of the panel, tasked with selecting a He Pī Ka Rere facilitator in the region. The project is a joint project between Toi Tangata, the BOPDHB through Toi Te Ora.
He Pī Ka Rere is a kaupapa Māori physical activity and nutrition approach, which nurtures and develops the whole being of a tamaiti in an early learning environment aimed at informing both kaiako and tamariki of the role that traditional activity plays in the growth and development of a child.
If any Kohanga or Māori focused ECC in the Waiariki or Bay of Plenty area are interested in He Pī Ka Rere workshops, tēnā whakapā atu ki a Darrio.

He panehe toki, ka tū te tangitangi kai.
‘A little axe well used brings food’
This proverb reminds us that effort with patience and perseverance can result in returns, in particular, in the fruits of our labour in the maara or kāri.
Since the COVID-19 restrictions were implemented, demand for food significantly increased for foodbanks. This has resulted in increased levels of unemployment, economic hardship, which could result in more people vulnerable to food security.
To address the potential shortfall of kai, there are grants to support communities to become food secure.
Have look and make sure to apply if this fits your whānau, hapū or iwi description.
