Nga Pukeko o te Akomanga 21
Ko te manu e kai ana i te miro, nōna te ngahere.
Ko te manu e kai ana i te mātauranga, nōna te ao.
The bird that partakes of the miro berry reigns in the
forest.
The bird that partakes of the power of knowledge has
access to the world.

have completed my degree I am humble and ready to partake in my new journey to
explore and create a holistic cultural approach to imbed and uplift within the
