Kawa Marae
    Moanauriuri Bay, Great Barrier Island

Kotahi whakaaro tatou
Kotahi karanga tatou
Tena te karanga a Kawa Marae
No Aotea

There is but one mind
There is but one voice
That is the voice belonging to Kawa Marae
From Aotea

A warm welcome from Kawa Marae. Kawa Marae is situated in Moanauriuri Bay, commonly known as Kawa (or Kaoa) Bay, Aotea - Great Barrier Island.

The owners of the marae land are the descendants of Te Nupere Ngawaka. The members of the Ngatiwai Ngati Rehua ki Aotea together with all their descendants are recognized as the beneficiaries of Kawa Marae.

The Trustees of the Ngatiwai O Aotea Kawa Marae Trust, under the guidance of our Kaumatua and Kuia, are responsible for the Tikanga, Kawa and Wairua Maori of the Marae. They are also responsible for the overall administration of the Marae and Urupa.

Click on the picture above and you will see that our Marae is not yet open. Follow our development progress on the Wharenui and Wharekai pages. We have not yet set an opening date as we still have a long way to go.
