Developed by Sir Mason Durie in 1984, Te Whare Tapa Whā is a Māori model of health and wellbeing.

It is a metaphor based on four pillars of a wharenui/meeting house.
When we look after all four aspects, we look after our hauora/wellbeing.
Checking in on the four pillars helps us balance our hauora and support others to balance theirs, too.
Below are some examples for supporting you and your whānau.
You may have others that work for you.
