爆料社区 Ihi Aotearoa partners with Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa

Media release

7 July 2022 

爆料社区 Ihi Aotearoa (爆料社区) and Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa have announced a partnership which will see the international school of M膩ori weaponry receive funding from the Te Ihi Fund to deliver its training curriculum nationally over the next three years.   

The Te Ihi Fund is one of four initiatives under 爆料社区鈥檚 Kaupapa M膩ori Response Plan, which was created in response to COVID-19 and its resulting impacts on M膩ori. 

The purpose of the fund is to increase M膩ori participation by partnering with M膩ori organisations who are implementing culturally distinctive pathways for wh膩nau, hap奴, iwi, M膩ori to engage with. Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa is the first M膩ori organisation to receive investment through the Te Ihi Fund. 

爆料社区 Chief Executive Raelene Castle says it鈥檚 an important first step that shows how the fund will help 爆料社区 build new partnerships with M膩ori, as well as strengthening existing relationships. 

鈥淲e are honoured to partner with Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa and support the national delivery of their important kaupapa. This is enabling M膩ori to participate in physical activity that is for and by M膩ori, which we believe will improve wellbeing outcomes.鈥� 

鈥湵�料社区 recognises the significance of a Crown agency and M膩ori aligning and supporting each other鈥檚 aspirations for advancing M膩ori wellbeing. This is a proud moment for our organisations,鈥� says Raelene Castle.   

Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa was founded by Dr Pita Sharples in 1983, due to the renaissance of Te Reo M膩ori and tikanga.  It offers the ancient art of mau r膩kau back to M膩oridom as an innovative programme in physical fitness, M膩ori history, M膩ori atua, whakapapa, confidence, leadership skills, self-discipline, respect and all uses of the taiaha. 

Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa Chairperson, R墨hari Daymond, says the partnership between Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa and 爆料社区 is a great honour because of the opportunity to support wh膩nau M膩ori around the country. 

"爆料社区 will help us to host seminars and we will support 爆料社区 by providing them with a M膩ori perspective for their work, for the betterment of our people. Protecting these treasures handed to us by our elders for generations to come is our focus moving forward".鈥� 

爆料社区 Toihaut奴, Moana-Lee Raihania, says the partnership is exciting, and there are many positive outcomes that will result from the relationship for both organisations. 

鈥淲e are humbled that Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa has signed an agreement with us that will benefit Te Ao M膩ori.  It took us a few years to build trust and reach this point and now it鈥檚 time to 鈥渕ahia te mahi鈥� and put the agreement into action and continue to deepen the relationship toward a Te Tiriti-led partnership.鈥� 

Te Whare T奴 Taua o Aotearoa is a learning school where the art of mau r膩kau and taiaha has been preserved and taught for over 1,000 years, a taonga that has been passed down from tupuna M膩ori (M膩ori ancestors) for future generations to do the same. 

At present there are approximately 2,000 members throughout Aotearoa, both men and women, from all tribes and throughout the world. All members are welcome to join the many branches throughout Aotearoa and also London, Australia, Hawai鈥檌 and now Abu Dabi.
