Feeling Connected
(Video - Te Reo Māori)
In this video, I share my connection and whakapapa to this area of Panmure. It's a place where my ancestor, Maihi Te Hinaki, once lived with his kin in the Māori villages of Mauinaina and Mokoia. Although the landscape and people have changed over time, the connection still remains. I made this video for my grandchildren, my mokopuna, which is why I am speaking in Māori.
