Aroha from the kitchen for their King

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

From those working in the food-prep engine room of the ‘dungeon’, through to their mates carrying plates in the dining room - one of the biggest expressions of aroha for King Tuheitia is in the kai to feed his mourners.

With tens of thousands of people descending on Tūrangawaewae for the tangi of Kiingi Tūheitia Pōtatau Te Wherowhero Vll, keeping them fed across most of a the week is no small task.
