“Tiakina te Pā Harakeke”

Kaupapa Here mō te Tiaki Tamariki

Nā te aha i whakarite ai mātou ki tēnei kaupapa here?

E mārama ana a Te Tai-o-Awatea, he kaitiaki mō ā-tātou tamariki me ngā rangatahi. He mea arahi, ko ngā kaupapa me ngā whetū hei oranga-tonu-tanga mō ngā whānau kia puawai ai. He taonga pūmau, ko ngā tamariki ake ake, ā, kei te kapo a tō rātou ake ringa e kaha ai tātou.

E mārama ana a Te Tai-o-Awatea, he mahi tino hē, ko te tūkino tamariki me te mea, ia rā, ia rā, ka puta ake taua mahi ki Aotearoa hei whakararu i te tupu o ā-tātou mokopuna, ā, pakeke noa.

Meanei te Aronga mō tēnei Kaupapa here:

Nā mātou tēnei kaupapa here i toko kia tika ai te whakahaere i ā-mātou hōtaka, ā, kia tonoa e Te Tai-o-Awatea te tangata pai hei arahi i aua hōtaka me te mea nei kia kaua e puta ai tētahi raru nui (kua meinga atu ki tā mātou kaupapa here mō te Kimi Kaimahi), ā, kia ako hoki i ā-mātou kaimahi kia mōhio ai ki tēnei mea, ko te wairua marū, ā, kia mōhio ai hoki me pehea te tauawhi – (kua meinga atu ki tā mātou kaupapa here mō te Tiaki Tamariki).

 E mārama ana mātou ki tā mātou kaupapa here mehemea, ka puta tētahi āwangawanga e pā ana ki tētahi tamariki, rangatahi rānei, ka whāpuakina atu e te kaimahi ki te tangata i whiriwhiria ai e Te Tai-o-Awatea hei pou-arahi, ā, ka tatū te Kaiwhakahaere kia mahi tahi me taua kaimahi kia aro-pū ki ngā tohutohu ki roto i ngā mahi katoa kua tohungia ki roto i te kaupapa here. Ā, e mea ana kia pērā hoki te mahi, ahakoa i whākina tētahi āwangawanga e te tamariki, e tētahi atu tangata rānei, ā, kua kitea ngā mahi hē i tētahi o ngā kaimahi ki ngā tamariki, rangatahi rānei.  

Kei te whakawhirinaki mātou kia ū ā-mātou kaimahi me ngā kaimahi tūao katoa ki ēnei kaupapa here me ngā tohutohu, mehemea, ka puta mai ētahi āwangawanga e pā ana ki ngā tamariki me ngā rangatahi, ā, mehemea horekau rātou e tino whakapono ki aua kaupapa here me ngā tohutohu, ka taea e rātou te whakapā atu ki a Oranga Tamariki kia tonoa atu he tautoko me te whakapuaki i tētahi Ripoata mō taua āwangawanga.

Ko te oranga o ngā tamariki me ngā rangatahi te tino pūtake hei whiriwhiringa mō ēnei take. E mea ana mātou kia kaua e mahi te tangata me tōna kōtahi, ā, kia ū tonu ki ngā tikanga kia kaua e whakapōhehe me ētahi atu o ngā pakeke me te mea nei, horekau mātou e whakaae ki ngā Whakaaetanga Whakataunga e meinga atu, e pai ana aua mahi kino ki te tamariki. 

I ngā wā katoa, ka whakapuakina ēnei kōrero ki ngā ratonga hei haumaru mō te tamariki me te rangatahi haunga anō, ka nui atu ngā raruraru mō taua tamariki me te rangatahi.
