This year’s Waitangi Day commemorations were held at the Council chambers in Paraparaumu.
[ad]Waitangi Day is a public holiday in New Zealand that falls on the 6th of February, where we commemorate the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi by the British Crown and by Maori in 1840. Waitangi Day has been celebrated as a public holiday since 1960.
The exhibition highlights the significance of the treaty and the tāngata whenua to the Kapiti Coast. This year’s theme is Te Tiriti: ‘Me huri whakamuri, ka titiro whakamua’.
The exhibition is open to the public, is suitable for all ages and admission is free.
