The Passing Of Sir Tom Davis


The Passing Of Sir Tom Davis


Dr. Rongo Wetere, Founder and Former CEO of Te Wananga o Aotearoa from 1994-2005, wishes to extend his condolences to Lady Carla and her family and to all the Cook Islanders in NZ and Raratonga at their loss of a very talented leader and Elder, Sir Tom Davis.

Sir Tom and Lady Carla spent two years in NZ whilst Sir Tom was overseeing the design and development of Aotearoa One, the double hulled Waka Hauroa which is yet to make its first full international voyage back to Raratonga and Hawaii.

Sir Tom has left his mark in Te Wananga o Aotearoa and NZ and has helped to form important relationships between Maori and Pacific Islanders.


Dr. Rongo H. Wetere
