Huge mihi to the kura who hosted Mātua Rob, our STEMM man, this term! 🤖🌊

Across the term, Rob worked with more than 83 learners, delivering 81 hours of hands-on AquaBots learning.

The goal was simple; give rangatahi who hadn’t tried AquaBots before the chance to have a go, build confidence, problem-solve and get hooked on STEMM.

We can’t wait to see you again at this year’s local AquaBots Tournament! We’ll share registration details as soon as they open. Get your teams ready!

Spot some familiar Eastbay REAP faces out and about this Friday & Saturday!

Our Attendance Team are volunteering their time, getting alongside rangatahi and supporting local kaupapa.

Because attendance starts with connection. Strong relationships, a sense of belonging, and positive experiences all help our rangatahi stay connected to learning.

Sometimes supporting attendance looks like showing up, pitching in and being part of the things that matter to community.

Connection first. Attendance follows.

See you out there! 👋🏽
