Soon after the Maori Women's Welfare League was formed in 1951, it took steps to preserve and revive traditional art forms such as weaving. In 1953 Rangimārie Hetet led a hui to teach weaving skills at Waipātōtō Marae, Te Kūiti. Among those attending were (from left) Rongomaiwahine Baker, Maringi Joseph, Queenie Atutahi, Hoki Barton and Te Aorangi Wetere.
