Welcome to Te Aitarakihi Trust Inc.

Te Aitarakihi Multicultural Centre in Timaru was established as a place for all cultures, “Te Wāhi Karanga Mo Nga Iwi Katoa”.  A gathering place for all cultures, all people, all communities, Māori and Pākehā, Polynesian and Melanesian, all cultures.  A place to embrace the land.  A place to be nurtured by the land.  A place for hui whakangahau, a place for tangi, a place to take our sadness and our celebrations.  It is a place for our children, for Rangatahi to stand tall, to be aware of their roots and heritage.
