Tikanga - Protocols 

For those who have never stayed on a marae there are some important protocols to be aware of. In the introduction session we will be sure that everyone is clear on these. Some basic protocols include not eating in certain spaces, not sitting on tables, shoes off inside etc. 

All guests will be provided with clear information about the Tikanga.
