News and Information

R.I.P Geoffrey Rakatau (Ngati Kauwhata)

04/Aug/2022


18/8/55 - 13/7/22

It is with great sadness that we have lost "Uncle Jeff" as we all knew him. Geoff supported our education programme right from the start and became a great favourite with the many students he spoke to. His knowledge of local maori history will ensure that several hundred children will always remember his stories and their day spent in the Park sitting in the whare. Thank you for your support of the Trust and the Park "Uncle Jeff". We will all miss you very much.

Take some time-out at Awahuri Forest - Kitchener Park
