TŌ TĀTOU KĀINGA
OUR PLACE / LOCATION

"I feel and believe Waipatu has a beautiful wairua. Rangi and Papa have blessed this place and it's people to be strong advocates for whanau, hapū and iwi. Mamia has come at a time where change is inevitable and will provide a nurturing environment for māmā and pēpi surrounded by caring people volunteering their time to make a difference".

- Waiariki Davis

"The location of Mamia at Waipatu Marae ensures the principles are embedded with the tikanga of the marae and enacted from tīpuna, kaumātua, and whānau who rest and live at Waipatu. Waipatu is led by wāhine toa who embody Aroha, Mahi Pono and Ringahora in their everyday actions.  Aria’s vision for Mamia is therefore brought to life by her own whakapapa and whenua".
