Nau mai haere mai and welcome to Te Whare Pora.
Te Taiwhenua o Heretaunga is excited to have a presence in Pā Harakeke offering free weaving wānanga for hapu whānau to learn about weaving for haputanga (pregnancy).
Te Whare Pora is a safe space with tikanga and kawa values that will provide whānau with opportunities to link with other community members while experiencing pathways towards wellness through weaving and whanaungatanga.
Wānanga schedules to be arranged between whānau, Kairaranga and Kairingahora.
No forms to fill out, wānanga will involve harvesting, karakia, tikanga harakeke and storytelling.
