| 0845- 0930 | Pōhiri The pōhiri is a traditional ceremony of encounter between tangata whenua (hosts) and manuhiri (visitors). In days of old it was a process of determining if visitors were friend or foe. Today, pōhiri are conducted to welcome visitors in a centuries old process consisting of wero (ceremonial challenge performed by a toa - warrior), karanga (ceremonial calling performed by wahine - females), haka pōhiri (traditional combined female/male haka of welcome), speeches of welcome and acknowledgement and waiata (songs of support). Pōhiri extend manaakitanga (paying respect/generosity) to visitors where connections through genealogies is paramount.
