Powhiri to Poroporoaki

Kia ora anō tātou katoa

If you remember past LIANZA conferences we as a group are expected to follow certain protocols and procedures from beginning (the powhiri) to the end (the poroporoaki). This year the LIANZA conference will be held at the Sky City Convention Centre.

If you are unaware of the protocols, the attached link will provide some basic guidelines to help you through these tikanga.

Personally I can't remember the exact korero but I think the concept is if you are informed then processes will run smoothly? Although there may be ups and downs in our lives, together we will persevere and arrive at our destination.

The waiata have a soundfile for you to listen and practise to.

No reira, ka kite koutou a te hui nei.
