Press Release – Te Whanau O Waipareira Trust
Waipareira Chair Ray Hall was returned to the Board at the organisation’s Annual General Meeting held at Hoani Waititi Marae, west Auckland, last night.
Ray and fellow Board member Moyna Grace were returned and confirmed uncontested.
Ray, who was voted to the Waipareira Board in 2011 and has been the Chairperson since 2014, said the faith the Waipareira whānau had in him and the Board was humbling.
“This shows me the confidence in this Board and the direction we are setting for Waipareira, is endorsed and supported by this whanau,” Ray said.
“This has been a challenging year for all of us but Waipareira has again been the benchmark, thanks largely to the vision of John Tamihere and work by our frontline kaimahi.
