He mea kaingakau na matau te wai ENGARI

HE TOKOMAHA RAWA A MATAU TAMARIKI KEI TE MATE KI REIRA

He iwi kau, he iwi ruku, he iwi hi ika, he iwi mahi kai maana, he iwi takaro matou ki te wai, engari ia he mea kino rawa te mate o te 10 Maori ki te wai i tenei Roumati, tokowaru i raro iho i te 12 tou te pakeke.

⋆ Kotahi te tamaiti e 8 tou te pakexe i mate ki te amio wai.

⋆ Tokorua nga tamariki e 7 tau tetahi e 9 tau tetahi i haere ki te awa i tetahi ahiahi — kihai i hoki mai.

⋆ I taka tetahi tamaiti nohinohi i runga i te waapu—mate tonu atu.

⋆ I taka tetahi tamaiti ki te tipi hipi—i te warea ke nga matua.

⋆ I te takaro tetahi tamaiti e whitu tau te pakeke i te taha o te awa—kihai i kitea ake —ka pa te pouri ki ana matua.

He wetiweti nga wai katoa. Ka mate te tamariki ki te toru inihi wai.

He tokomaha a matou tamariki he tamariki nohinohi, he tamariki wawahi taha—he uaua te tiaki i nga wa katoa—engari ia e tika ana—kia tiakina i nga wa katoo.

HE MEA KAINGAKAU NA MATOU TE WAI—ENGARI KEI RUNGA AKE TO MATOU KAINGAKAU KI A MATOU TAMARIKI

KAUA E TUKUA KIA MATE A TATOU TAMARIKI

Kia tupata i a kautau tamariki kia whai tangata i nga wa katoa hei tiaki i a ratou—kio tuoato i te wai—kia tupato.
