about us.
whakapapa.
Na nga tuahine tokorua nei i timata mai i a Done.
To maua nei whakapapa; Ko Te Upoko o Tahumata te Maunga Ko Okana te awa Ko Wairewa te roto Ko Ngai Tahu te iwi Ko Ngati Irakehu te hapū Ko Wairewa te Marae
I whanau mai maua tahi ki Rotorua, a, i tipu ake i reira. I whaiwhai haere maua ki te rapu i nga aheitanga no tena, no tena, i mua i te timatanga i to matou nei kamupene a Done.
Ko to maua Kaupapa nui, ko te hononga ki a papatuanuku, ka heke mai i ta maua nei whakapapa. Ko te piri ki a papatuanuku hei tīaroaro i o maua mahi katoa.
“Ko au te maunga, te maunga ko au”.
Na maua a Done. i timata, kia mahitahi ai ki nga tangata e rata ana ki to maua nei Kaupapa nui.
Done was started by two sisters.
We are connected to; The mountain, Te Upoko o Tahumata; The river, Okana; The lake, Wairewa; The tribe, Ngai Tahu; The subtribe, Ngati Irakehu; The Marae, Wairewa.
We were born and raised in Rotorua and then followed our own paths to gain experience before forming Done.
Through our whakapapa, we recognise that we are deeply connected to the environment rather than separate from it and we act in alignment with this notion.
“We are the mountain and the mountain is us”.
We formed Done. so that we can work on projects and with people who share this understanding.
