Te Kohinga Waka together, we are

bringing our “kai” to

be exchanged which

is skills, experience

and even opinions.

This exchange bene-

fits all parties con-

cerned.

The word “waka:” is

used to describe the

mode of transporta-

tion that Maori used

along the river inlets.

Once again, the con-

temporary context is

in reference to each

person of the collec-

tive being metaphori-

cally depicted as a

waka that arrives at a

meeting ready to ko-

rero and make

shared decisions.

Each time they would

get into their waka and

paddle up (or down)

the river inlets and

meet up to trade. The

Maori name for this is

“Kohinga” which

translated means to

gather or assemble

together. In a con-

temporary context,

when members of the

collective come

knowledge,

The name Te Kohinga

Waka comes from the

Treaty claim reports

about how Napier, in

particular, Maraenui pre

settlement days geo-

graphically was a series

of river inlets from all

directions that would

meet in a special area

where they would trade

and barter their goods

in exchange for others.

Maori from inland

would have precious

goods such as kereru

(pigeon) and harakeke

made into a rope fibre.

Coastal Maori would

have fish and Kaimoana,

and other delicacies

such as karengo (dried

seaweed).

He Waka Eke Noa (A canoe that we are all in with no exceptions and united)

This is a famous whakatauaki (Proverb) that is clear and

simple as to the purpose of the collective.

It is similar to a mission statement and provides a connection

to the name of the collective - Te Kohinga Waka
