Sustainability Policy and Initiatives at The Heke
In everyday actions, such as the ones we report here, we strive to be leaders in this area. This is in line with our values and we believe it is the only choice; to take responsibility for the impact we make for current and future New Zealanders.
Manaakitanga at The Heke
Maori history and artworks are celebrated at The Heke. Rangihoua or Putiki-o-Kahu ‘the top-knot of Kahu’ is the hill you can see straight across the valley from here. It is the most significant occupied site of Maori on Waiheke Island. Thousands of people made this fortified vantage point their home, over hundreds of years.
