Using RSS feeds is a very good way to keep up to date with what's new on the Ako Aotearoa website.  They will inform you each time new content is added, so you don't need to remember to check for anything new.

On the Ako Aotearoa website RSS feeds are available for:

The feeds are available by clicking on the RSS button to the right of the "What's New in ..." section (NB - you might have to scroll down the page to see this section in some instances)

NB - the RSS feeds will only provide information on content that has been published (i.e. viewable by everyone on the site).

To access these feeds (plus others you might set up from news websites, blogs, etc) you will need to use a 'feed reader' or 'aggregator'. Commonly used ones are Bloglines, or Google Reader
