Summary

Description

This image is part of the Learning Media Limited Te Pou Taki Kōrero educational resources transferred to Archives New Zealand. The work was either commissioned or created in the production of Te Wharekura publication for educational purposes. The art work created in 1988 is titled Nga Tamariki Iti o Aotearoa - Te Taitama/ The Boy from the Sea by Clare Bowes.

The theme of this year’s festival, ‘kaitiakitanga’ (guardianship), gives us an opportunity to think about our role as guardians. For Māori, the atua (gods) were the first guardians. They included Tāne, guardian of the forests and birds, and Tangaroa, guardian of the sea and all its abundant life forms. Māori also have kaitiaki (guardians) in the form of birds and other animals, which protect us by warning us of danger. Archives New Zealand, Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga is the official guardian of New Zealand’s public archives. We gather, store and protect an extremely wide range of material. Our holdings include the originals of the Treaty of Waitangi, government documents, maps, paintings, photographs and film. Archives New Zealand works to ensure records of long-term value are kept permanently and people have access to these records.
