Mr G’s final ‘HOME’ artwork “Kotahitanga” embodies the essence of Waitangi Day
"Kotahitanga is a word that gets used so flippantly these days and I really don't want it to lose the power and mana that the word carries." - Mr G, speaking at the mural presentation of his latest artwork.
Thanks to the staff, students, friends and whānau who joined us today for the unveiling of Mr G's mural, "Kotahitanga", to Matua Tamati for the karakia. Mihi to Jake Angus for presenting our koha to Mr and Mrs G too
We can't wait for Trimester A to begin to see the reaction of our tauira and wider campus community, when they engage with this incredible piece.
Mr G, of all the 'canvasses' in Tauranga Moana, thank you for choosing ours. We have enjoyed having you and Milly on campus and look forward to seeing you both again.
Tauranga City Council, mihi to Gareth and Reena, thank you for your support and the partnership that has seen this final piece of the 'HOME' exhibition come to fruition.
And finally, thank you Joseph Macfarlane and Marcelle Wharerau for all your mahi in making this happen.
Come and check out the mural whenever you're around our CBD Campus!

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
