Meet Ngāti Rānana’s 2025 Kōmiti

Kōmiti are the governance body and kaitiaki of tīkanga for Ngāti Rānana. We work with our
Kaiāwhina roopu, whānau and alumni network to ensure the smooth running of Ngāti Rānana.

We also have a group of Kaiāwhina and Kaiārahi who take the lead on all learning in Ngāti Rānana.
