By believing and trusting

By having faith and hope

By looking and searching

By working and striving together

By patience and perseverance

By doing this with love and compassion

We can achieve success

Karakia Mutunga - to end the day

E te Papatūānuku, 

Kua mutu tātou i te mahi tahi o te rā. 

Kia tau tō rangimārie ki a mātou. 

Acknowledging the forces of nature 

(Mother Earth),

We have come to the end of our collaborative work for the day. 

May peace be with us all.
