Tarore stained glass window, St Aidan's Anglican Church, Auckland, commissioned 2011. Three pīwakawaka (fantails) above symbolise the Trinity. The informal flower image represents youth. Tarore holds a copy of the Gospel of Luke in te reo Māori. The words around her head translate from te reo as "Peace be with you". Below is the tree of life, a Joshua Tree.

Tarore (c. 1824 – 18 October 1836) was a Christian martyr and child prodigy. She was the daughter of Wiremu Ngākuku, a rangatira (chief) of the Māori iwi (tribe) Ngāti Hauā in the North Island of New Zealand. Her story is treasured by the New Zealand church as an example of forgiveness after her father chose not seek revenge against her killers following her death, and her gospel book was key to the spread of Christianity amongst Māori.
