Ko te hāngī te momo tunu kai nui ki te Māori. Ka taea te rahi o te kai te tunu ki roto hāngī, arā, te uta kai ki runga kōhatu wera kua putua ki te wai; puta ana te koromāhu, ka taupokina te kai ki te oneone tunu ai.

One way in which Māori traditionally cooked food was in an earth oven or hāngī. Large quantities of food could be cooked by steaming it over hot stones in a pit, which was then covered in. It is still customary for Māori to ‘put down a hāngī’ when large crowds have to be fed. Here the hāngī has been opened and the food is ready for serving. The event, in 1974, was part of a programme exposing students to different cultural experiences.

His name is derived from an edible plant called rauparaha. Soon after he was born a Waikato warrior who had killed and eaten a relation of his threatened to eat the child as well, roasted with rauparaha leaves; the child was called Te Rauparaha in defiance of this threat. The other name by which he was known during his childhood was Maui Potiki, because he, like Maui Potiki, was lively and mischievous. Much of his childhood was spent with his mother's people at Maungatautari, but he may have been instructed at the whare wananga at Kawhia.

After being diagnosed with tuberculosis, Kia Riwai returned to the Chatham Islands to convalesce. Although some family members were not hopeful of a recovery, with characteristic determination and fortitude she overcame her illness, and in the early 1930s secured a job on a Chatham Islands’ sheep station as a musterers’ cook. Strict orders forbade her from investigating a certain cupboard in the homestead. Alone, unable to contain her curiosity, she opened the cupboard. To her horror a pile of skulls, believed to be of Moriori, tumbled to the floor, sending a terrified Kia screaming from the house, never to return.

Ormsby was equally successful in other spheres of activity. In 1890 the Native Land Court confirmed the Ormsby family's title to 3,161 acres of land at Te Kopua and he began sheepfarming. The land purchase officer in Otorohanga, G. T. Wilkinson, complained that the success of the venture was encouraging other Ngati Maniapoto to retain rather than sell their land, but he was confident that Maori sheepfarming would soon fail. Ormsby went on to help establish the town of Otorohanga. He was chairman of the Otorohanga Town Board and clerk of the first Waitomo County Council, and laid the foundation stone of the town hall. He employed his Maori relatives to manage the hotel, quarry, butchery, livery stables, land insurance and interpretation agency, and the bakery which he established. His farming ventures continued to flourish and he established the first local branch of the New Zealand Farmers' Union. Ormsby refused to act as agent for the Ocean Accident and Guarantee Corporation unless they accepted Maori risk; they relented.

Even at school Johnny Smith demonstrated uncanny ability to adapt to any sport. He attended Kaikohe School and then went on to Kaikohe District High School, where he played for the First XV from 1935 to 1937. After leaving school he worked in the family bakery, and linked up with the Kaikohe Rugby Football Club. In 1940 he joined the army. It was while playing in an army match, at Palmerston North in September 1942, that he first commanded the attention of rugby followers outside Northland. He had made his first-class début for the 12th Brigade Group side earlier that year and went on to represent the North Island in August 1943. The following month he appeared for the New Zealand army against the Royal New Zealand Air Force, running 40 yards to score late in the match and help turn an 8–9 deficit into an army victory.
