Rocky Roberts (Ngāti Marukaitātea, Ngāti Hinematua, Ngāti Mako) is Chief Storyteller at Māori consultancy Naia. He leads Naia’s animated pūrākau kaupapa He Kōrero. These stories are told in te reo Māori and English and are available alongside teaching resources at hekōrero.nz. Rocky believes that our pūrākau can help whānau who are disconnected and maybe a little unsure or nervous about how to re-connect.
