Rohe

“I timatanga I Oruru tae noa ki te awa o Orua-iti. Me huri aku kamo ki te whatu o Parikihana i Mangonui Taipa. I hakawhiti atu ana ki Maungataniwha ki te hauauru o Otangaroa tae noa atu ki te ngahere o nga puke tiitii o te waka o Mataatua. I rere tenei o nga manga ra roto whenua, ra runga whanuia o Waipapa, Te Whau, Upokorau. I marere atu au ki te moana o Takou ki te awa o Te Koua Kawau te wahi I takoto mai ana te waka tupuna o Mataatua. Toro atu ki te takutai o Te Rawhiti me huri ano te kanohi ki te Pokopoko o Hinenui Po me Te Urenui o Mauipotiki. Mai te Aukanapanapa, he tohu mo te ara taku tai moana tae noa atu ki te tuawhenua ki Tangitu.”

Te Rohe O Whaingaroa

The Iwi of Whaingaroa are the Whānau, Marae, Hapū that reside within Te Rohe o Whaingaroa bound together by strong Ngāpuhi and Ngāti Kahu whakapapa.

The land boundary commences at the river mouth of the Oruaiti River in the north, moving in a southerly direction encompassing the Puketi Forest, and then moving in a northeasterly direction in the Takou River area.

The coastal boundary commences at the mouth of the Oruaiti River, follows the eastern side of the Mangonui Harbour, then directly out to sea moving in a southeasterly direction along the coast to Rupurapura (Needles) off Pureura and includes the Whaingaroa Harbour, its rivers estuaries and island within this role.

The rohe is further described as those areas that the hapu of the marae within the above boundaries exercise manawhenua and manamoana.
