When she was just five months old, her family moved from the Mangamaire farm to Strathmore, a short distance away. Miro recalls their family as self-sufficient, akin to a small community. From the ages of 5 or 6, the girls helped on the farm, hauling water from the creek, chopping wood, milking cows, cleaning the house, doing laundry, cooking, and managing various other tasks. Although Miro regrets not having the chance to attend school or meet other children, she is grateful for the valuable lessons taught by her mother.Wāhi | LocationWimbledon Road|PorangahauTohu Matawhenua | Geo Coordinates^[1]
