Our Mataatua cohort are at their second noho wananga returning to Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi in Whakatāne for Tū Māia 2023.
Let’s hear how their journey is going.
Rana Kapene-Paitai No wonder people like going back to school, I can see why it’s a place that people want to, especially Māori want to come back to learn from.
Rebecca Premadasa I liked his words around being disruptive that’s what really resonated with me today. How can I actually as tauiwi, be disruptive or be an anti-racist in my everyday life mahi, my everyday life.
Varnze Ihaia You’ve got to make a little bit of waves in order to change the perception of us as people, and also us as te ao Māori.
Adam Allington It’s always wonderful to be in Whakatāne, the weather has been lovely…the campus is stunningly beautiful. It’s very welcoming and we’ve just had a fantastic feed, the kai has been amazing!
