Whāriki Te Eweewe O Te Ono, Ki Uta Ki Tai

Whāriki: Te Eweewe O Te Ono, Ki Uta Ki Tai

Located opposite the Band Rotunda on the Ōtākaro Avon River promenade (between Colombo and Manchester streets).

Hapū, from the mountains to the sea.

The hapū associated with greater Christchurch are centred around the traditional settlements of Tuahiwi, Ōnuku, Koukourārata, Rāpaki, Wairewa and Taumutu.

‘Ki Uta’ refers to Ngā Tiritiri o Te Moana, the Southern Alps; ‘Ki Tai’ to Mahaanui, the Canterbury coastline and sea.

Collectively our hapū (kinship group, subtribe) offer support to all whānau (family) from the mountains to the sea and are the connections that hold our mana motuhake (autonomy, independence) strong.

Eweewe: blood relations. Ono: sands. Ki uta ki tai: from the mountains to the sea.
