TE WAHAROA PROSPECTUS 2011
Cover design inspired by the artwork of:
ROBERTA HAWAIKIRANGI NGĀTI KAHUNGUNU, NGĀTI POROU “TE WAIRUA WHAKAPONO – Belief in One's Self”
Roberta completed her Te Maunga Kura Toi (Rauangi) – Bachelor of Māori Visual Arts (Rauangi) at Toimairangi, Te Wānanga o Aotearoa, Hastings in 2010. In her work Roberta explores everyday themes that affect Māori and draws upon her own life experiences for inspiration. About the artwork: The koru, for me, represents new beginnings and new experiences. From learning how to use lines and curves to blending colours, the koru led me to do a series of works that enabled me to meet with other indigenous students and artists in Canada, America and Hawaii.

I’m excited about the year ahead, and I’m optimistic we can work together to use this time productively to gain new skills and move closer to our dreams and aspirations. However, with jobs in short supply, demand for our programmes is extreme. You’ve taken the first step by picking up this prospectus.

What can I study? You can choose from over 40 programmes at certificate, diploma and degree level across a wide range of subject areas. These include business, computing, social services, teaching, arts, performing arts, Māori language and iwi environmental management.
