Tūāpapa series 2026

Registrations are now open for our next Tūāpapa Wānanga at Rotoiti!

Over the weekend, we’ll continue our Tūāpapa mahi, bringing together the knowledge, skills and collective strength of our whānau as we prepare for this important milestone. We’ll be learning and practising the tikanga, waiata and haka that will help shape the pahi opening. We’ll also have a waka practice in preparation for the pahi opening, giving whānau the opportunity to come together, learn and practise their roles ahead of the big day.

When: Friday 27th November 2026 5.00pm- Sunday 29th November 11.00am ish

Where: Rotoiti, St Arnaud

Accommodation: Outdoor Education Centre, Rotoiti.

Accommodation spots are limited and priority will be given to those staying for the whole wānanga.

Whether you’ve been part of the Tūāpapa journey from the beginning or are joining us for the first time, nau mai, haere mai! 

Come learn. Come contribute. Come be part of the kaupapa!

Nau mai, haere mai — we’re looking forward to seeing you there.
