A NEW MIGRATION To the Maori people I say: when the great canoes first set out over the oceans of discovery, nature was your only challenge. The seas and the seasons were your foe and your friend. You were guided by traditions and the stars. Now you are no longer alone. You must calculate your position not only by the stars. You live with other men of the twentieth century. You must sail abreast of the other peoples of the Pacific and the near north. I would say, then: prepare the canoes for another migration as adventurous as the last. But this time, let us build a new canoe to lead the fleet—a canoe called Aotearoa, the New Zealand canoe. How Government seeks to open wider perspectives to children such as these, living in new homes built for them at Kaikohe.
New home, built in Kaikohe under the Maori Affairs scheme to settle Maori families in urban areas. better could we mark this historic day, our first official New Zealand Day! The motive power is education. Hoist the sails to catch the winds of change and increase the pace.
