Take a free He Whakaputanga tour
Join our skilled He Tohu learning team to learn about He Whakaputanga — The Declaration Of Independence (1835), a key document which helped shape Aotearoa, New Zealand.
He Whakaputanga New Zealand’s first constitutional document
He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni, The Declaration Of Independence of New Zealand was debated, agreed upon and ultimately signed by 34 rangatira at Waitangi on 28 October, 1835, and later by another 18 chiefs from the north and elsewhere, through until 22 July 1939.
He Whakaputanga is New Zealand’s first constitutional document — a document that defines the existence of the nation, who is in control of it, and how it will be run. It is also one of the earliest assertions of Māori identity beyond separate iwi and hapū. The document marked steps toward a unified form of governance among the many different rangatira and their hapū and iwi.
The document is inseparable from the Treaty of Waitangi and the issues that shape Aotearoa New Zealand.
As Ngāpuhi elder Hone Sadler notes, ‘He Whakaputanga te matua, Te Tiriti te tamaiti — He Whakaputanga is the parent, Te Tiriti is the child.’
He Whakaputanga remains a taonga of great significance today.

- Remutaka Hill road on SH2 was closed shortly before midday Friday after two trucks collided, adding further pressure to the road network at the start of Labour Weekend. The road reopened about 1pm.
- An earlier truck crash about 3.45am near Pukerua Bay on SH1 has been blocking the road in both directions. The Mainfreight truck was carrying hazardous chemicals and paint products. The driver received minor injuries.
Motorists have been warned of major delays, and light vehicles can use the Paekākāriki Hill Rd. The section of road between Paekākāriki and Grays Rd at Mana is closed and Police said it could remain this way until late.
Keep up-to-date with the traffic chaos here.
NZTA regional transport systems manager Mark Owen said: "If people are heading out of town they need to think of an alternative at this stage, and it's certainly going to take a lot longer if they take an alternative route."
Police have asked motorists to avoid the area.
We have lovely blue skies and sun here in the Wairarapa today - perfect for outdoor adventuring. Check out our top tips for the weekend here..

Here it is, the grand finale. Experience the energy of some of the capitals best poets as they battle it out to be the new Wellington poetry slam champion!
Wellington’s 2018 Poetry Slam Champion
It’s all been building up to this! Across the year, Poetry in Motion has been running poetry slams, now the winners will come together and battle it out to be Wellington’s 2018 Poetry Slam Champion.
Poetry Slam is taking the world by storm
Poetry Slam is the competitive format taking the world by storm. A high energy, enthralling event where performance poets are judged by random members of the audience in an arbitrary but totally engaging way.
Since 2011, many of Greater Wellington’s finest performance poets have competed and this year’s events have been no different. Sold out events, packed open mics and searing hot slams scream out that poetry is alive and kicking in the capital.
Cash prizes for the first three places
There are cash prizes for the first three places, PLUS the winner will travel to Christchurch in November to compete for the title of New Zealand Slam Champ.
Festival of Slam Wellington
For the first time this event is part of the ‘Festival of Slam Wellington’, a day of free workshops, panel discussions and performance leading up to this event.

Here are some tips to make sure you and your loved ones are well prepared and stay safe:
1. Check the marine weather forecast before you go out, it could save your life! 58% of boaties already check it. We want the other 42% to make it a habit. MetService New Zealand's Marine App makes it easy.
2. Tests your life jackets. Pull hard on the straps and see if any of them stretch or rip. Check all over for any existing tears in the straps and any cuts or punctures in the life jacket. If yes, do not use the life jacket, dispose of it, and replace it. Always check if it floats before putting them on. Keep in mind kapok life jackets should not be used as they can absorb water and sink, their cotton straps also easily rip! Burn them or bin them, but whatever you do - don't use or resell them.
3. For this year's Safer Boating Week, boaties are being reminded to “Prep, Check, Know” - prepare your boat, check your gear and know the rules before going on the water.
Let's put in the time and effort to make sure there are NO water related accidents or deaths this Labour Day long-weekend! Don't forget to look out for each other and report any concerns you have to local authorities.
