Welcome Nau mai Haere mai.

Tihe Mauriora!
Tūia i runga, tūia i raro , tūia te muka tangata
Ka rongo te Pō ka rongo te Ao.
I te kōrerorero, i te wānanga
Ka puta ki te whaiao
ki te ao mārama
Haumi e, Hui e, Taiki e
Nau mai te Iwi,
Piki mai ngā Mana Rangatira
Whakatau mai te whānau
Haere mai, haere mai, haere mai
Haere mai ki tēnei Marae o tātou.
Ko te pae tapu a Te Rangiāhuta a
Te Herenga Waka
Kawe mai ngā tini mate
Whārikitia ki runga i te marae ātea
Kia mihia, kia tangihia, Kia poroporoakitia
Haere ngā mate, Haere, haere, haere
Haere mai ngā hau e whā, Haere mai te whānau
Haere mai , haere mai, haere mai.

The University Marae

The marae provides a tūrangawaewae (a standing place where Māori custom prevails) for the students and staff of Victoria University to promote, disseminate and maintain the use of te reo and tikanga Māori. A primary role of the Marae is to be a support facility that enhances the teaching, learning and cultural needs of Māori at the University. The Marae is available for use by non-University groups subject to kaupapa and Marae availability.
