We support the Tiaki promise
Tiaki means to care for people, place and culture. The Tiaki Promise is a commitment to care for New Zealand, for now and for future generations. Our Kaitiaki here at Russell-Orongo Bay Holiday Park are committed to sustainable and environmental practices & providing our guests with matauranga

(knowledge) in kaitiakitanga and conservation. In Te Ao Māori we aim to represent ourselves as Totara, tall and strong, watching over and protecting our little piece of ngāhere (forest), to give back to the land that has sustained us. Read more about our sustainability initiatives.
