Will I need to have a Powhiri if I am visiting the Marae? If you are visiting our health services as a client, you will not need a powhiri.
Guests visiting the Marae for a Hui, function or special event will need a powhiri. However, visitors need to take into consideration their individual situations and it is best to contact our office to discuss your need for a powhiri.
I know that my group needs to have a powhiri. What do I need to do?
It is up to your roopu (group) to organise a kaikaranga (caller) and a whaikorero (male speaker) to represent your roopu. If you are unable to source these, we have a list of contacts available. A fee may be incurred for these. Once you have these organised, the last thing that your group needs is a waiata (song) to sing at the powhiri after your whaikorero has spoken. Each time a whaikorero from your group speaks it is followed by a waiata, therefore if you have three speakers, you will need three songs.
