Ko te kawa, he kawa Atua, ko te tikanga he aroha
Ko nga ritenga o te haora o te whitu o te ata, o te whitu o te ahiahipo
He huarahi hei whakapuawai i te ara-wairua.

Nau mai, haere atu ra nga mihi o te Nuku, o te Rangi kia koutou te hunga titiro ki te ipurangi a te marae o Te Maungarongo ki Ohakune.  He ipurangi ta nei hei whakahonohono i nga uri, hei whakatata hoki ki nga tangata, puta noa i te ao.

E te iwi kia ora – Welcome to the Maungārongo Marae Website!

Nestled at the south-western foot of Mount Ruapehu in Ohakune, the Central North Island of New Zealand, is Maungarongo Marae.  Maungarongo is the home base for the uri of the Maramatanga of Te Mareikura Hori Enoka and Ngati Tui-o-Nuku hapu.

This website provides visitors with information about the marae, general history  and has a facility to book the marae.  It also allows uri of the Maramatanga and Ngati Tui-o-Nuku to access further cultural and historical information through a registration process that connects to a restricted site.

Enjoy the site and learn from the experience!

Ina te ka rero tohutohu o ta tatau tupuna hei hanga ta ranga mana me hana uri mokopuna;

“ngawahi pukepuke kia papatairite,
nga wahi taratara kia ara maeneene,
nga wahi pikopiko whakatikatikaina
kia mau ai te rongo mau, he mea paihere na te rangimarie”.

Titiro mai!  Panuitia mai!
