Ko Mauao Te Maunga

Te Awanui Te Moana

Mataatua Te Waka

Ngai Te Rangi me Ngati Ranginui Nga Iwi

Ngai Tamawhariua Ngati Tauaiti me Te Whanau A Tauwhao oku Hapu

Te Rangihouhiri, Te Kutaroa me Rangiwaea oku Marae

I tipu ai au I te tino pito o te Ao – ko te Moutere o Matakana tera

He uri au no te whanau Roretana.

Mauri Oho – Mauri Tu – Mauri Ora

My name is Te Uta Roretana my claim to fame is my 5 children, 3 of whom didn’t have a choice, and 2 chose me. I have 13 mokopuna and 2 mokomoko. I spent 25 years working in mental health and a few years in the Justice Department. I have been a part of the SociaLink whanau for almost 12 months now and it has been a very interesting journey in terms of the movement towards co-governance. Just a case of – “ Watch this space”.
