Pūkana - 2015 Episode

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2015

Tiare [Tāwera] is hanging his presenter shoes up after 10 years, to step into the role of director.
– Press release, on Pūkana's 2015 season
With the introduction of te reo Pākehā into the show, it will allow us to grow our audience base and hopefully excite enough of our non-fluent audience into taking the next step into learning Te Reo.
