Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Ruamata is challenging Rotorua Airport's opposition to its building expansion plans. The school argues the airport is creating barriers to Māori education despite the kura operating on Te Ngae Road for nearly 40 years. Leaders have called on the Rotorua Lakes Council to help resolve the matter.
