Reo ki te Kāinga was born from a desire to remove as many barriers as possible, for whānau wanting to embark on their reo journey. Three generations of whānau are involved in the process, supporting one another to cultivate te reo Māori in their household.

A māmā engaged with our Tupu Matomato programme has recently given birth to a beautiful baby boy. One of our kaimahi was privileged to attend the birth, and shares some kōrero on the experience.

Ngā Kaihautū is a 10-week leadership programme that brings together tāne from all walks of life. The name serves as a reminder of the potential they have to steer their lives in whatever direction they choose.  Kevin Pahina who is a facilitator of the programme, says the name Ngā Kaihautū is taken from the captain of a traditional waka. “The overall goal is to give them the ability to command their own waka and be kaihautū whether it be of their own lives, or those of their whānau.”
