Our 1st Annual Migrant Powhiri was an amazing success:

Hundreds of migrants gathered at the Whareroa Marae to officially welcome migrants to the Bay of Plenty . This ceremony ushers in a new era of inclusion.  Race Relations commissioner Meng Foon attended this event which was lauded as the first powhiri of its'  kind in Aotearoa.
The aspect of the tangata whenua welcoming the migrants to this land was the kaupapa of this event. Many
of the migrants present were deeply touched by this experience as it was one of a kind.

This year’s Ethkick is to be held on
Saturday, 28 September 2019 at Tauranga Boys’ College fields on Cameron Road, Tauranga.

The tournament is hosted by Multicultural Tauranga and New Zealand Police with support
from Blue Rovers Football Club. The entry fee will be $40.00 per team, as previously. However, there will not be a national tournament this year, i.e. games will only be played locally without a national final.

This year Multicultural Tauranga will be running the tournament alongside the ‘New to the Bay Expo 2019’, which will be held at the same venue. This is an event to welcome newcomers and support them to access services and information for positive and successful settlement in the community.

Men’s and women’s teams are welcome.
Please note that the registration deadline is the 21 September 2019.

For more information and registrations forms please contact Multicultural Tauranga on (07) 571 6419 or e-mail: enquiries@trmc.co.nz

Come and make a paper crane towards the creation of a ‘Senbazuru’ - 1000 paper cranes - to hang under the Our Place marquee.

This public art installation is being created as a symbol of peace and to celebrate our sister city connections with Hitachi City, in Japan. This activity is part of the ‘Finding Beauty’ Exhibition at Our Place Tauranga from April 15th – May 10th.

These workshops are happening across two days on Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th from 10:30am till 11:30am.
