Te Pūaotanga o Maru i te Ātatū | Crown Apolgy to Ngāti Maru
On Saturday 29 October 2022 at Te Upoko o te Whenua, Ngāti Maru received an apology from the Crown for its historic breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi and 16 titles of land returned under the Treaty settlement. Uri came from far and wide to mark this momentous occasion, which will forever be commemorated as Te Pūaotanga o Maru i te Atatū – the reawakening and re-emergence of Ngāti Maru.
