“Learning from my tūtū and aunty meant being very disciplined; there was no fooling around. You had to watch, listen and follow. There wasn't a whole lot of in-depth explanation of what you were doing. You were expected to know it.

Hōkūlani Hold-Padilla”

“Na to tamahine ka pai i ta kina mai ai teni ke keno ki konei.

It was this lovely girl who brought the seal here.

Visits were often made by the sea, so the beautiful young woman draws lovers to her as though they were seals coming in from the sea.

Maori proverb”
