Morenā Whānau .......
A few of our Tāonga, a living thread in the great cloak of Aotearoā.
They watch over our homeland, our people, and our stories — holding the past, present, and future in their wings.
They remind us:
“Ko au te whenua, ko te whenua ko au — I am the land, and the land is me.”

Morenā Whānau,
it's been a minute, hope that you are all well.

As always, my core is Whākapapa, Whānau, and fur babies. Paying Homage to Whākapapa, here is one of our family's Coat of Arms. I am an Ormsby (Maiden Name).

Latin Meaning:
“Fortis qui prudens” — He is strong who is prudent.
This speaks of true strength coming not from force, but from wisdom, foresight, and careful judgment.
The motto can be understood as:
“Ko te kaha kei te whakaaro nui — true strength rests in wisdom.”

It beautifully weaves together my Viking-Norman heritage with my Māori whakapapa, both cultures honouring leaders who are strong because they are prudent, not reckless.

(And yes, I will be using this for printing for my immediate Whānau)

Around this time of year in the warm island waters, the ocean welcomes new life—gentle whale calves, playful orca pups, gliding stingray babies, and tiny turtles making their first journey beneath the waves. These precious new arrivals are cradled by the tides and watched over by their pod or whānau, a beautiful reminder that the moana is always renewing, always nurturing.

Sir Āpirana Ngata played a significant role in bringing the waiata "Tūtira mai ngā iwi" to the forefront. He actively promoted and collected Māori songs, including "Tūtira mai ngā iwi," as part of his broader efforts to revitalize Māori culture and language. His work with the waiata was closely tied to his efforts in collecting and publishing Māori songs, particularly through the publication "Nga Moteatea".

The Māori song "Tūtira Mai Ngā Iwi" was written by Reverend Canon Wiremu "Wī" Te Tau Huata. He composed it in the 1950s, specifically around Lake Tūtira in Hawke's Bay. Huata, an Anglican minister and chaplain to the Māori Queen, wrote the song with the intention of uniting people from all backgrounds.

Here's a bit more detail:
Composer: Wiremu Te Tau Huata
Time Period: 1950s
Location: Lake Tūtira, Hawke's Bay
Purpose: To promote unity and togetherness among all people, regardless of their background.
Inspiration: Huata was inspired by the area's historical significance as a place of unity for iwi (tribes).
