NEW ZEALAND ’S BEST YOUNG TRADITIONAL PERFORMER NAMED ON MĀORI TELEVISION
 Who is the best upcoming Māori entertainer in Aotearoa? The question has been posed and the answers can only be discovered by tuning in to the final of NGAHAU on Māori Television, screening on Saturday February 12 at 6.00 PM.
In the past two months, 15 young contestants have been battling it out in fierce competition through the series, while mastering five performance disciplines in te reo Māori, including singing, dancing, storytelling, mōteatea (a specialised form of sung poetry), poi (females) and rākau / weaponry (males).
Now, the group of hopefuls has been whittled down to four. In the final episode, Pareana Pakinga (Huntly), Makuini Taikato (Tauranga), Ngaputiputi Takapita (Hawera) and Ngahuia Kawau (Wanganui) are running in hot competition to claim the inaugural NGAHAU series winner.
As they hit the stage for the last time before a studio audience, the girls will have their every move and every note scrutinised by an expert panel of judges, including the legendary Sir Howard Morrison, famed Māori entertainer Moana Maniapoto and NGAHAU series judge Tina Maree Kaipara.
Don’t miss out on these young hopefuls’ lost shot of fame on the final of NGAHAU, on Māori Television on Saturday February 12 at 6.00 PM.

PATRICIA GRACE – OUTSTANDING MĀORI STORYTELLER SHOWCASED ON MĀORI TELEVISION
Inspirational writer Patricia Grace is set to reveal how the community, whenua and Māori women have influenced her expressions on HE RARANGA KŌRERO, screening on Māori Television on Tuesday February 8 at 9.30 PM.
HE RARANGA KŌRERO is a unique series that re-visits Māori archival documentaries in the new millennium, fronted by Tainui Stephens.
This week, the spotlight shines squarely on eloquent writer Patricia Grace, whose short stories and imaginings have captured a nation – both Māori and non-Māori.
Born in Wellington in 1937, an idyllic childhood spent at whānau land in Hongoeka Bay (Plimmerton) would eventuate into one of the largest influences Grace considers instrumental to her writings. However, her formative years spent were stifling, in an artistic sense, and it wasn’t until a moment’s repose at teachers’ college that Grace realised her calling.
Over the next 20 years, Grace would continue to write about her own experiences and those of the people she knew and he found the audience for a New Zealand stories was gradually widening. To date, Grace has penned an impressive range of prose for adults and children, including celebrated titles such as Waiariki and Other Stories, Mutuwhenua : the Moon Sleeps, The Dream Sleepers and Other Stories, The Kuia and the Spider, Wāhine Toa : Women of Māori Myth and many more.
Peppered with excerpts from Patricia Grace-inspired dramas, readings, interviews with key people and footage of the writer herself at leisure, the documentary maintains a strong sense of focus on what drives her to consistently produce stories that speak to all New Zealanders.
HE RARANGA KŌRERO screens on Māori Television on Tuesday February 8 at 9.30 PM.
