About Raukawa
We are an Iwi Radio Station located in the South Waikato Area in the heart of Tokoroa.
Emare- Rose Nikora temporarily stepped out of Kohanga in 1990 to establish the Raukawa Trustboard and went on to establish the Raukawa Radio Station in 1990.
Our Story
Te Reo Irirangi O Raukawa began broadcasting on the 23rd October 1990, with keen motivated people that were determined on making this a Radio Station that people would want to listen, learn and contribute to.
Fast forward to 2022, today Raukawa Vibes is run by a young vibrant group of multi talented individuals. Together as a team we are dynamic and have visions that will take Raukawa Vibes to new levels.
