Whakaari is rising. So too must our voices. Be part of Te Puia o Whakaari — the long-term plan shaped by us, for us

Te Puia o Whakaari


He manawa ora kei te moana ​
Ko Whakaari, te pou whenua, te tohu o ngā rangi kei mua​
E pāpā ana te auahi, e kōrero ana te taiao​​
Ko ana tohu, he kupu matakite,
hei ārahi i a tātou i tēnei haerenga ki te anamata.

A breath of life rises from the sea ​
Whakaari stands as our sentinel, a sign of what lies ahead​
​Its steaming plume speaks, the natural world whispers​
​In its omens are messages for tomorrow,​
guiding us on this journey toward the future.
