Every morning at 9.30am, whānau and supporters will be gathering outside the courtroom for karakia and waiata.
We extend a warm invitation to all whānau and supporters to join us.
Here is the Wakatū Karakia and waiata resource (PDF) to help build confidence in singing waiata at mihi whakatau or pōwhiri and to assist you in using a karakia to open or close a hui, meeting, or bless kai.
Whānau are welcome to bring their own karakia and waiata to share, too.
Thank you for your support.
