Tēnā koutou katoa.

I can now confirm the Tuia Te Ako 2012 hui will be held at Pipitea Marae, Wellington, 29–30 March next year, so please put the date in your diary now.

The Tuia Te Ako Planning Committee, Te Manu Mātauranga, has welcomed Janette Hamilton-Pearce (Te Wānanga o Awanuiārangi), Donnalynn Douglas (Skills Active ITO) and Te Tumatakuru O’Connell (Massey University) to the team.

I also take this opportunity to sadly farewell and thank Trevor Moeke and Dr Kathie Irwin for their valuable contributions.

The key themes for the hui are:

  • Kaitiakitanga (Guardianship)
  • Manaakitanga (Care and Support)
  • Te Reo
  • Whakamana (Empowerment).

These themes revolve around the saying Toi te ako, toi te whenua, toi te mana! (Celebrate learning, provide the foundation and build prestige!).

Interested people will be pleased to know that the cost will be the same as it was in 2010 – great value at $75 + GST per delegate. The opening date for registrations will be available soon,
and this will be posted on the Tuia Te Ako section of our website.

In the meantime, if you have any questions about the hui, please contact me direct at: n.apanui@massey.ac.nz or visit the conference page on the website.
