Kīngitanga Day
University of Waikato, Thursday 12 September 2013

Kīngitanga Day is an opportunity for students, staff and the wider community to celebrate the University’s distinctive identity, heritage and relationships.

Various central activities will of course focus on the relationships with the Kīngitanga and Māori communities, however the programme extends wider in order to embrace the University’s cultural diversity and its various expressions of excellence across all areas. A fun and vibrant day is anticipated for the University and the community.

简单得说就是大学吃饱了撑的

What is the Kīngitanga?

In 1858, the Kīngitanga or Māori King Movement was established by the Māori tribes across the motu (land). Its purpose was to put an end to Māori land alienation, to halt inter-tribal warfare and to preserve Mana Māori Motuhake, in effect to unite the people. In 2008 - 2009 the Kīngitanga celebrated its 150th anniversary.

    Pōtatau Te Wherowhero of Waikato-Tainui was installed as the first Māori King in 1858.
    In 1860, Kīngi Pōtatau was succeeded by his son Tāwhiao, also known as Matutaera.
    In 1894 following the death of Kīngi Tāwhiao, his son Mahuta was appointed the third Māori King.
    In 1912 Te Rata was invested with the Kingship, followed by his son Koroki who became the fifth Māori King in 1933.
    Upon the death of Kīngi Koroki in 1966, the King Movement saw the coronation of the first Māori Queen, Te Arikinui Dame Te Atairangikaahu.
    Ascending to the throne in 2006, the current reigning monarch of the Kīngitanga is Kīngi Tūheitia.
