Ngā Pou

Te Kāpehu Whetū offers an opportunity to raise generations of Ngāpuhi who are confident, competent and capable so that they may find their place on the marae and their place in the world – “Tu ki te marae….. Tu ki te Ao”.

To do so, the Kura Hourua continues with a focus around three pou: Kia Māori, Kia Mātau, Kia Tū Rangatira ai!
