Whakawhānautanga/ Mafutaga

Māori and Pasifika students from the school are invited to come along to a bi-monthly hui. This is an opportunity to get to know other Māori and Pasifika students that are enrolled in mathematics and statistics courses. All Māori and Pasifika students will receive an email invitation so come along for an informal gathering to establish an active Māori/Pasifika community in the School. Please contact Catilin Warwood for more information.

Information will be e-mailed to students.

Āwhina

Āwhina is the on-campus whānau for Māori students to work together to share knowledge, achieve academic success, and build strong communities and leaders.

Underpinning Āwhina's successes is the inclusive whānau environment where high expectations, aspirations and achievements, collective success and reciprocity are normalised.

The Pasifika Student Success team can help all Pasifika students navigate their transition into tertiary study and their journey at the University.

They foster Pasifika learning and teaching communities in an environment that is welcoming, safe, and focused on academic excellence, personal growth, and wellbeing.
