Te Rākau Ture

E tipu e rea mō ngā rā o tō ao pa tō ringa ki ngā rākau a te pākehā hei oranga mō, tō tinana... Tō ngakau ki ngā taonga a tipuna Māori, hei tikitiki mō tō mahunga mō wairua ki te Atua.. Nānā nei ngā mea katoa...

Grasp hold of the tools of the Pākehā, as sustenance for your body..your heart to the treasures of our ancestors as a tikitiki for your head – Sir Apirana Ngāta 

Our vision is that we are mokopuna Māori first, and law students second, pursuing te ao ture for the betterment of our people.

Nau mai haere mai ki tēnei Te Rākau Ture. Kaua e whakamā ki te uru mai, mauri ora! We are Te Rākau Ture - the Māori Law Students’ Association. Since 1990, Te Rākau Ture has provided a great social and academic support network for Māori law students’. We are your whānau away from home at Law School. We encourage all tauira to participate in the wide range of initiatives and events we host throughout the year, including kaitahi, haerenga, our mentoring program, social events and moot workshops, to name a few.
