Haka TÅ« Haka Ora is a kapa haka competition for primary schools in the Central Otago area. The aim is to grow kapa haka in the Whakatipu Basin by introducing a competition that is easily accessible to local kura in Central Otago.

The competition highlights the important contribution waiata, haka and Māori performance provide for community identity, culture and overall wellbeing. The concept acknowledges and gives action to the responsibility we all have to uphold our traditions and taonga for future generations. The catch phrase is: Maranga mai tamariki mā, which simply translates Rise Up Tamariki.
