Ka noho tonu a Whakaata Māori ki Tamaki Makaurau. Nei rā te whakatau a tana poari whakahaere kua ono marama neke atu e whiriwhiri ana i ētahi ara, e neke atu ai pea āna whakahaere matua ki Kirikiriroa, ki Rotorua, ki wāhi kē atu rānei o Tāmaki Makaurau.
Kei te āta whakaaroaro te Poari i ētahi wāhi hou ki Tāmaki ki Te Tonga, Tāmaki ki Te Uru me tōna kainga ōnaianei. I roto i ngā marama e ono ki muri ka āta wānanga te Poari i ētahi tono matawhānui i Rotorua, Kirikiriroa me Tamaki Makaurau.
Otira tērā anō te patai a te mema mō Reipa a Clare Curran he aha i whakaaroarohia ai te hūnukutanga o Whakaata Māori ki waho ake i te taone mātua.
Ka puta te whakatau ko hea te wāhi hou a te timatanga o te tau rua mano tekau ma ono.
