Bernard Makoare, Te Hemo Ata Hēnare, Tātai Hēnare.
Ko ōku nei mātāpono; ko te whāngai, ko te manaaki, ko te arahina i nga purapura, nga kōhungahunga, i ngā tamariki, ngā taiohi ohingā e tipu ana. Kia pūmau te ora i ngā tikanga, i ngā kawa hoki. Kia rangona whānui i te ia, me te ikeiketanga o te matemateaone. Arā, ko ōu kārangaranga maha puta noa i tōu ake ahurea me tou ake tuākiri rangatira e kore e kitea nei i tetahi ao kē.

Charged with maintaining protocols associated with Ngā Mahi ā Te Whare Pora and the continuation of the practice of Raranga, Whatu, Tāniko and Tukutuku.
