Meaning

The Roimata (drop or tear-shaped) trophy is a meaningful Māori cultural award that embodies both deep emotion and resilience. Its distinctive teardrop form, known as roimata in te reo Māori, symbolises comfort, compassion, and empathy. Drop pendants are traditionally given to offer support during challenging times or to express sympathy and reassurance in moments of loss. The roimata is also associated with healing and the strength found in vulnerability, representing the journey through adversity and the restoration of balance and well-being.
