Waitangi Day and Selwyn District Citizenship Ceremony
Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki welcomes new citizens to Taumutu, Waitangi Day 2020
Ko te wehi ki te Atua, te tīmatatanga o te kupu
Whakamaua te rongopai, kia ū ki te whenua
Aroha nui ki te tangata
Ko Nuku Mania te maunga
Ko Te Waihora te hāpua
Ko Taumutu te kāinga
Ko Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki te hapū
Nau mai, tauti mai!
Welcome to Taumutu, the homelands of Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki and Te Taumutu Rūnanga. Come on in and learn a little about us, catch up with what we are doing and let us know how you want to be involved.
Your mountain Nuku Mania calls you,
Your lake Te Waihora beckons you,
Come home to Taumutu and
Be amongst your people of Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki.
Welcome!
