2017-2018 Uniform has been created by Ariki Brightwell for our 2017 Matariki Harbour Challenge event in collaboration with graphic designer Michael Fox. 

Features of our design reflect our history in Te Whanganui a Tara as follows:

Taranaki Maunga is at the top with Puanga to the right - this incorporates our current Hikoikoi Waka ama logo and that of Te Wharewaka o Poneke.

Beneath the maunga are horizontal lines representing the wind, right side are our three harbour islands, Mokopuna top, Matiu middle, Makaro bottom.

Left is a paddle dipped in the ocean/harbour representing waka ama, the large harbour Whanganui a Tara.

The entire logo is shaped to resemble the head of an octopus or wheke that Kupe chased to Aotearoa!
