The Journey
as told to Kiwa Hammond by Tumanako Taurima; illustrations by Andrew Burdan
A faint chance of escape to a new life of freedom...
It was time to go. Not a word was said by anyone, not even the little ones. They understood why it was so important to be quiet. Their young eyes had seen many terrible things. They had lost parents, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunties, and uncles – but did not understand why. Iwirori was among the small group of survivors.

A Short History of Rēkohu
Traditional stories told by the Moriori say that the descendants of Rongomaiwhenua (peace on the land) and Rongomaitere (peace on the sea) are already living on Rēkohu when Kahu, the Polynesian explorer, arrives by canoe. Kahu travels around the island before returning to Hawaiki.

Where No Boat Could Live
by Roger Fyfe
How do you catch fish in rough sea without the fear of sinking?
It’s easy to miss the Chatham Islands on a map – tiny specks of land, lost in the vast Pacific Ocean. It’s an unpredictable corner of the world, known for its strong winds and frequent storms. In fact, the weather can be so wild, sailors call this part of the Pacific the “roaring forties”.
