E nga manuhiri nau mai ki te whaarangi ipurangi o Te Ukaipo,
ko te tumanako kei roto i nga whaarangi e whai ake nei nga hua,

NAU MAI KI TE UKAIPO
"Hinga atu he tete kura, ara mai he tete kura"
It is believed that in te ao maori that when one fern frond withers up and dies, a new one grows to take its place.
In this proverb, we liken the life cycle of the fern frond to that of rangatahi and whanau we work with daily.
As the fern frond faces challenges of weathering and harassment from its environment, so do we.
Our role is to nurture the growth of rangatahi and whanau so our community grows stronger together.
