The workshop opened with a karakia
Whakataka te hau ki te uru Cease oh winds of the west and of the south
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga Let the bracing breezes flow
Kia mākinakina ki uta over the land and the sea
Kia mātaratara ki tai Let the red-tipped dawn come
E hī ake ana te atakura with a sharpened edge,
He tio, he huka, he hauhū a touch of frost
Tihei Mauri Ora! a promise of a glorious day!

The meeting was concluded with a karakia
Unuhia, unuhia Release, release
Unuhia mai te uru tapu nui Release us from this sacred state
Kia wātea, kia māmā te ngākau, To clear and set free the heart,
te tinana, te wairua i te ara takatū body and spirit so that we're prepared
Koia rā e Rongo Let peace and humility
Whakairihia ake ki runga Be raised above us
Kia tina. Tina! And made manifest. Affirm!
Haumi e, hui e, tāiki e! Join, gather and exclaim, it is done!
