Te Toka Whakakotahi Marae Complex

Te Toka Whakakotahi Marae

We welcome Guests and Visitors to our Marae and ask that you look after it,
and enjoy your stay here. No reira, nau mai, piki mai, haere mai.

The Marae complex was completed in 1991 with a whare nui, whare kai, classrooms, a carving and craft centre and associated facilities. While the Marae is used by the school as a classroom during the day, it can be booked by the community during other times as needed.
