Inserting names with photograhs would be good for the records

General reply from website was:  that it's a great idea however it is difficult to have people agree to photos and then to find someone prepared to take the photos and submit with the correct names.  Will try though

Labour weekend with the whanau

Kia ora e te whanau. Tenei ra te mihi mahana atu nei ki a koutou. Haere atu ra ko te tau tawhito. Nau mai ko te tau hou. Naku noa Adrian. 

Kia ora guys!

Wow I have just been on our website for the first time and Yeeehaa!  Fabulous!!  Looks great and have got fantastic ideas, especially a page where for those of us who have done a tremendous amount of study on the Pa, Hapu, Iwi, Kaumatua etc, to be able to post them so people can read them, as they are full of information about our histories.

And photo's of everything happening!  Grrreat!

Well Angela, if you could let me know when you could spare some time when you are out home next to give me a bit of training as a content manager, that would be fabulous.

Awesome, awesome!  And hooray and moment to take a look.... 

Sweet, well enjoy what it is you are doing :o)

Kia ora ra

Well that was fun, what a choice website and its only early stages too. One take at this stage. I had a look at the youth photos, umm, is that alcohol in the photo of Brad, Hik and the Houkamau boy? Shows how out of date I am aye when I dont even know, but if it is, that photo has to come off- its not the look for our youth. If its not alcohol then the photo is fine, leave it there and i will be sure to send some in, once I learn how to get them off the camera k.

Way to go whanau, nga mihi nui
