I tū tēnei whakataetae tākaro ā-ringa hei wāhanga o tētahi rā whakanui i ngā tākaro a ngā Māori onamata, he mea whakatū e te hāhi Perehipitiriana o Whakatāne hei mahi moni āwhina i te Kura mō Ngā Kōtiro Māori ki Turakina. Koinei te wahine i toa ki ngā tākaro ā-ringa. He whakataetae anō mō te tī rākau, te whiu teka, te kōruru, te mū tōrere me te eke pouturu.
