Moko Tu Rongo Wananga

Whakamomori/Suicide Prevention Wananga

What is Moko Tu Rongo?

Moko Tu Rongo has been holding wananga since early 2016 in Tairawhiti empowering those affected and going through whakamomori.

Moko Tu Rongo is hope, a voice, peace, aroha understanding, a space to tell your story, a space to learn and a space to grow, we cry, we laugh, most importantly Moko Tu Rongo is a safe space to heal.

At Moko Tu Rongo Wananga our whanau tell Purakau, apply Romiromi and Moko. We share in whanaungatanga (togetherness), kaitahi, Matauranga Maori, Toi Maori and all that is Te Ao Maori. Moko Tu Rongo is led by whanau for whanau, Moko Tu Rongo belongs to whanau and community. We encourage whanau to apply Purakau in their everyday lives to open their hearts and minds to happiness and aroha. To know that they are enough and that they are not alone!!!

Moko Turongo is an open wananga that whanau can attend & come share in this unique wananga experience, all you have to do is be there. For whanau wanting to receive Tamoko, please note that there is a cost & all Moko work will be kept to hand size pieces only. All recipients will be required to attend wananga on the Friday night & register.

Moko Kanohi will need to be discussed with our Tamoko Artist prior to wananga.

If you have any questions, please give us a call or send us an email or go to our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/381023039842840

Nau mai haere mai whanau!! Let’s heal together and grow together.

Kia pai to ra,

Kerry Hirini and Cheanne Johnson
