He hokinga mahara ki taua huihuinga tino whakamiharo. E kore rawa e warewaretia.
Kua tuhia te rae i Te Hau Kōmaru Hui-Ahurei i tatū ai ki Kaiteretere.
I ngā rā o te marama o Apireira, mai te 6 – 14, i tō mai ngā wakahourua i Ngā Hau e whā, he mea whakanui i te huarahi i toro nei ki roto i ngā tau kua pāhemo ake nei.
Ko ngā mea whakahira o te Hui Ahurei:
- Ko ngā momo whakaaturanga o ngā wakahourua i tere haere ki runga i te moana i hikohiko ai te wairua,
- Ko ngā pūkenga i kawea e ngā kaumoana, ngā kaihautū, he taonga tuku iho.
Ehara i te mea, he huihuinga noa iho engari, he takahanga kia tika ai te tūāpapa o te whare ahurea Māori. Ka mutu, ko reira rongo ai te aroha o te hāpori nei me te tū tangata, arā, i kitea-ā-whatu te whiri o te taura-here-tangata i waenga i te hau kāinga me ngā manuhiri nā runga i ngā tikanga o te Māori.
Heoi, he huanui i puta mai ai te ahurei, ko te pupuri a tō tātou ahurea hei oranga mō ngā uri whakatupu.
I tua atu, he kaupapa tūhonohono i te tangata ki tōna ahurea. Ā, kia arumia ngā au-moana i haere ai ngā wakahourua.
Ka mutu, nā te pai hoki o tēnei ahurei o Te Hau Kōmaru, ka tū tika te atamira mō ngā tau kei te haere mai nei.
Nā, kia maumahara ake te iwi i te māia, te manawanui me ēra pūmanawa katoa kei te ahurea hei whakanui i ngā taonga tuku iho.
Ki te hunga, kāhore i tae-ā-tīnana, kaua e āwangawanga. Kua hopu ngā whakaahua me ngā kiriata hei mātakitaki i runga i tā mātou pae tukutuku. Ā, ko reira kite ai ngā painga o taua hui ahurei nā Te Hau Kōmaru.
