Mihimihi – Greeting












Tēnā koutou katoa
Ko Kestor te maunga
Ko Teign te awa
He waka rererangi te waka
Ko te Moana-nui-ā-Kiwa te moana
Ingarangi ahau, engari,
nā ōku waewae tipi haere ki ngā whenua maha
kua tau ki Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa
Kei te Pokapū Ako ahau e mahi ana
Ko Jennie Swann taku ingoa
Tēnā tātou katoa

Greetings to you all
Kestor is the mountain I identify with
Teign is the river
I am from England but I have travelled through many lands and met many people and now I live in New Zealand
The ocean which means the most to me is the Pacific
I work at the Centre for Learning and Teaching at Auckland University of Technology
My name is Jennie Swann
Greetings to all of you
