E te whānau o Te Rau Hihiri,

Many of you have shared with us that you have not been able to get into reo Māori classes due to limited spaces and levels available. Well, look no further… here is the opportunity for you! 🙌🏽🥰

Engaging Well Ltd are offering online Te Reo Māori lessons for Māori working in the Public Sector. These lessons will be taught by Aperahama Hurihanganui (BA/LLB 1st Class Hons), one of the teachers at Te Kura Reo Rāngai Tūmatanui.

Take up this opportunity to whakawhanaunga with other Māori in the sector while developing your knowledge and skills in Te Reo Māori. We hope these lessons will give you the confidence to attend Kura Reo Rāngai Tūmatanui later in the year too!

Check out our story or .well.ltd for the Humanitix link.

If you have any questions, please contact Aperahama - [email protected].

You have the right to Protest!!!

If you're considering participating in the Toitū te Tiriti Hīkoi, it’s important to understand your rights as a public servant. You have the right to express your views peacefully, but it’s also crucial to know how this aligns with your role and responsibilities.

Now is the time to have an open and honest discussion with your manager about your rights to participate in the peaceful protest, and how you can do so while maintaining your professional duties.

Here is some advice from the PSA that we shared at the time of the Toitū te Tiriti Activation.

💬 Start the conversation today—ask questions, get informed, and make sure you’re empowered to make the right choices.

"...despite running a few events to date, we do not class ourselves as professional conference organisers. Just a group of friends who dream big, take the best of all our pūkenga and smash it together. Believe me, we do plenty of karakia and karanga to our ātua to guide us. We are hopeless addicts to the cause."

Elena Higgison, Te Rau Hihiri Trustee, shares her reflections on He Māori Ahau as we wrap up and head into wānanga mode. Read the full blog now. 🥰

He Māori Ahau.  A statement. A waiata. A kaupapa. A cause to come together to unite. A celebration of Māori success as Māori.  This hui was dreamed of over 3 years ago, back in 2021. Our chair and my bestie, Kara Nepe-Apatu posed a question online about organising a ‘real talk’ c

At He Māori Ahau, the Mahi ā Tira session focused on co-designing a five-year mahere, harnessing collective strengths to achieve the vision of Hawaiki Mokopuna. It was a hard task to do within an hour but we made a great start.

All of the Hawaiki Mokopuna rauemi - vision, activity guidance and mahere, are now available and downloadable on our website. We encourage you to download, share, wānanga, collaborate and feedback.

What are you going to do to launch your waka today towards Hawaiki Mokopuna?
