Te+Haerenga+2007

In November 2007 a group of adults from Haramura visited Pukekohe. This exchange is part of the “Te Haerenga Project “. “Te Harenga” means precious exchange and meetings in the Maori Language. The purpose of the delegation was not only educational exchange but also developing industrial and commercial exchange.

Some of the group we homestayed with local families. While on their visit, the group visited Patumahoe Primary School as well as Pukekohe Intermediate. Also they visited council Franklin District Council offices and Stan Clarke’s celery farm, the market gardening business of A.S. Wilcox and Sons and Awhitu Wines, as well as the Awhitu lighthouse and quick visit to the Flying 50 event in Waiuku. A visit was also made to the Franklin District Council where they met the mayor, Mark Ball. The group also was invited to dinner at Mr Ball's house, as well as at Mr Sweeney's house.
