| My whaakaro: | Hi there! My ivory white son Griffin (11) has just found out his fathers side of the family is Tuhoe and hes pretty stoked about it! He dosent know his father, he buggered off back to Australia (where he was born) when Grif was just a baby.. Griffins Nana moved to Aussie too a couple of years back, but up until then, lived in Ruatahuna. She still owns the house as far as I know, not sure whos living there now! Anyway her name is Charmaine Ormsby, we have been trying to get in touch with her but no joy yet. Griffin just wants to learn a wee bit about his family history so if anyone can point us in the right direction it would be great!! I visited Charmaine in Ruatahuna when I was pregnant with Griffin, I can see why they say "children of the mist" its such a peaceful magical place, like a differernt world! I loved it, wish she still lived up there!! Kia Ora peeps:) Cadi |

Hey peoples, as you can see, im a descendant of the Waimana crowd. I live up in Aux now, moved up from Paeroa. Im going back down home to see the whanau @ the Ahurei so that should be great. But the main point why im here is to ask for help. See im part of a sub-committee up in Aux that acts on behalf of Te Pouahinau marae. So im asking anyone and everyone for a helping hand at the marae working bee during May the 1st, 2nd & maybe the 3rd 2009. We (the aux whanau)are ready to kruz down on that weekend to break our backs for the marae and the whanau. So if youre free and willing to help (because we'll need all the help we can get) please tell your whanau and friends that we need a hand and come along. There will be food and drinks provided for all the helpers as well so that's a bonus. Might have a few cold beers after all the hard work too. So if you can, just turn up to the marae on the 1st, 2nd & 3rd of May 09. Or you can get a hold of me via my email. You can either text or ring me on 021 156 - 2056. Thanks whanau !!! |

Havent really gotten to know my whanau, and havent seen anyone since i was about 13, at Uncle Matts tangi at Kutarere. Anyway, just lost my mum in april 08 and found out at her funeral that our dad had passed about two-three years before that. I have two brothers, Dinnie and Joe, and my mum was Josephine and i think aunty nancys' daughter was named after her. Anyway whanau, be good to hear frm anyone who recognises what im on about, that would be cool, Arohanui whanau. |

| My whaakaro: | Does the crown really have Tuhoe land or can tuhoe do as they please. The crown say they have tuhoe land but it looks like a lie. What if you all start building your way. and start securing your own towns and offering people to come live in paradise under tuhoe security. Maybe you can build all the basic needs, like shops and Maori can come with their goods to sell from your towns and yous even can talk only Maori where people can come and practice their Maori. The government says they wont to revive the Maori language. So why would they refuse a tribe who will pull together and help this revival of the Maori language and culture or are they lying about that too. The days of invading is over..yes they want to practice their rule over you tuhoe. but its a fake. Its always been a fake. "What if they come back with their guns" If they do that who are they going to shoot. And if they shoot someone what will happen then? Ob cause..Tuhoe wont allow that. So why wait, maybe you all need to start something good. but thats right this is a dream book |

It is amazing "e koe' how time and distance has taken its toll by whanau moving to other parts of the globe and losing connections because of that. BUT thankfully with the arrival of the internet that is no longer an issue. We have an amazing website here for whanau and as you have discovered is quite neat. We have a home for whanau from Ngai Tuhoe to communicate with each other via guest books placed all over the website. Whanau who travel a lot to Tuhoe take photos, videos and audio recordings to show friends and whanau unable to get home because of cost which is part of our gift allowing our whanau to visit home online. Its neat, free and here all the time. Welcome e hoa and na mihi hoki kia koe |

I“m proud to know the magic of Lake Waikaremoana and the fantastic country around it. I will never forget the ceremonies I was allowed to be part of.

| my e-mail address: | gtuwairua@optusnet.com.au |
| My whaakaro: | What do's it take. When are we going to wake up .Protests & meetings don't work .What can we say or do for our family's with out been labeled a terrorist . I myself use to injoy absailing off the front of any nuclear US war ship in thee name of green peace .Freindly protest all that did was cause a boat to be bombed on NZ soil . 2 french residents were caught and jailed. They both served time in NZ then a deal was arranged through french & New Zealand goverments for both to serve the remander of there sentence in france. When they both returned to france though they where given the keys too the country. I also had the pleasure to meet and spend alot of spiritual and work hours through an orginisation called Te Whanau with another who loves his people and culture Dunn Mihaka .What do's it take . Tame you are family you are tuhoe what can we do .You help our people were abuse is the poison .I have a question for you .Where did the curse come from that was put over tuhoe.Why do i ask this question of you My name is George Tuwairua i can tell you that just in my whanau that the first born of every Tuwairua is not with there original partners and in most cases there breakups are pretty ugly if not violent.There have been many victims.Some of our people have had the power over creatures and be one with the land a gift given to them .And in the last 20years have used it against there own people (Makutu) Greed or abuse of power and many hide behind a white collar but i know who the witches and warlocks are.The time is near you will all know. For now i give you one .# I Acuse Tukua Tuwairua for witchcrarft against Members of the Tuwairua family and inlaws streching for over 20years.I don't have to share my evidence with no one.Be seriuos excuse me officer that lady's a witch they would call you crazy and accuse you of being off your face and lock you up .You see if failure is not an option then fear is not an option as well.Where most whanau have there black sheep well i got promoted to antichrist of mine .Some will say im in to much dreamtime .It is not my fault that there are so many out there who are so blinded by there on addiction .There is not one hateful bone in my body.Dont get angry get even.Tukua is only a Tuwairua by marriage she will never have the Tuwairua or Tuhoe Mana .Now she moonlighting as a minister.Good luck . Big accusation Maybe she will turn me into a tuniwha Ha Ha are you scared im not.I am George Tuwairua im a direct desendent to Rua through Haupap(Harry) and my tipuna are stronger than ever .My last name means up standing spirits .And i am Tuhoe meaning Children of the Mist. I will be coming home With my wife and children for my father Rev George Tuwairua's unveling at piri pari Marae date not set by his wife.If we have time to meet & talk then talk we will .Failure is not an option. Aroha Tino Nui Melbourne Australia p/s To my whanau o Tuhoe .Even though the white man is too blame .Dont blame them ( If you hate somthing or someone (eg the white man) so much you are truly blinded to the point that life whanau & beauty are sacrificed for hate.Hate gets nowhere ...GT |
