It's a bird, it's a plane ... no, it's the Te Kura Family Harm Team - Chris Karaitiana as 'Zorro' and Mel Humphries as the 'Sweet Angel' – along with a number of other heroes dressed up for the 'Super Heroes Agency Speed Dating event'.
Te Kura is a Ngāti Kahungunu approach to Whāngaia Ngā Pā Harakeke, which is a New Zealand Police initiative that encourages collaboration with iwi and other agencies to reduce family harm within Māori communities.
The Ngāti Kahungunu Iwi 'Te Kura' coordinators, Chris Karaitiana and Mel Humphries, thought it was time that the community agencies came together to get to know one another.
An invitation went out through the iwi email network inviting all service providers and agencies to the Super Heroes Agency Speed Dating event which took place at Clubs Hastings on June 21.
"The idea for the event came from our whānau Whangaia Ngā Pa Harakeke ki Wairoa," Humphries said.
