We recognise Kaumatua for their wisdom, experience, knowledge and the contribution they have made and continue to make in family, community, hapū and iwi.
This service enables elderly to continue with their path of teaching, sharing and guiding for that of our up and coming generations. It further, involves activities that add to wellbeing through physical activity, socialising and being out in the community.
