Thanks to the support of the provincial growth fund, and all our local partners for making the W\u0101nanga happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Education will be at the heart of what our W\u0101nanga provides to the community. What can I expect to see at the W\u0101nanga, you ask? Our super excited Education Director Kelly can fill you in! &#8220;For the community, the w\u0101nanga means that we will be hosting day and noho (overnight) workshops and learning opportunities in our wharenui. For our schools, we are adding to our education session options to make sure we are helping them meet the needs of the curriculum. This means our sessions not only teach across different parts of the curriculum (from science to language) but also provide students with insights into Aotearoa&#8217;s history, Te Reo M\u0101ori and tikanga, and local knowledge. Schools can still participate in our two day-session options and will be able to select from more options in the future &#8211; we are currently trialing sessions on tracking and trapping, freshwater sampling, for example.&#8221; says Kelly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A special mention must also be made to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jnl.co.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juken New Zealand<\/a> (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jnl.co.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\">jnl.co.nz<\/a>) who have funded the timber for the build!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kaka Chicks All Grown Up!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot can happen in a month at P\u016bkaha.
