This week on Kia Korero Ma Ki Ahau

Saturday 06th June - Matariki is upon us, a time for new beginnings, time to turn the soil and in a Maori sense a time to reconnect with the world around us. This week we talk with Auckland City Councils Matariki Festival organiser in Tamaki Makaurau, Anahera Higgins, who talks about the month of planned celebrations and her teams challenge to get non Maori on-board the Matariki waaka.

Sunday 07th June - Ta Papa Pita...that's what we are calling the countries newest Maori knight our beloved Dr Peter Sharples following the last weekends Queens Birthday honours. We talk with Henare Kingi who has followed Ta Papap Pita's political career at least, very closely.
