Te Pūrongo 2013

HE MIHI Tariao, Tāwera Tōia mai te ao Ka tokona ko te ao E pūao ai te ata huakirangi Tākiri mai te ata Korihi te manu Ka pō, ka pō Ka ao, ka ao Ko te ao ū, te ao ea Te ao tutuki, te ao oti Ka awatea!

Tihe mauriora ki Te Whai ao, ki Te Ao Mārama!

Te wehi ki a Īhowa i te Wāhi Ngaro, te tīmatanga me te whakamutunga o ngā mea katoa. Ka whakamoemititia atu, mōna i manaaki, i atawhai mai i tēnei tau kua mahue iho ki muri. Ko te tūmanako anō ia, ka tau tonu āna manaakitanga ki runga i a tātou ā ngā rangi e heke mai nei, kia hua ko te pai me te rangimārie.

Tēnei te tangi atu nei ki a rātou kua ngaro atu i a tātou. E tangi tonu ana mātou ki te tini o ngā kaimahi, tatū ki a rātou o ngā tūranga whānau o te Wānanga. Ko James Hapeta tērā, ko Borgia Hakaraia, ko Hilda Te Wiata. Ka huri atu ki a George Taiaroa, ki a Sonny Sciascia, ki a Bill Royal, ki ngā pakeke nei ki a Pua rāua ko John Tunoho, ki a Zena Moeau, tatū atu ki a Atareta Winiata, ko Shirley Edwin, ko Mihi Gray, ko Fred Tahiwi, ko Terewai Grace, ko Rangi Gillet, ko Claire Ferris, ko Keith Simpson. I rangatira ai, i nui ai a Te Wānanga i ēnei i manaaki mai, i tautoko mai i a ia. Kua riro atu rātou ki te wahangūtanga o tēnei hanga o te mate, ki Hawaiki te hunanga o te tangata hoki kore ki muri nei. Kua okioki ō tātou mate o te Au ki te Tonga, o Ngāti Toa Rangatira, Te Āti Awa me Ngāti Raukawa.

Ngā Kaupapa o Te Wānanga o Raukawa These kaupapa (values) are accepted individually and collectively as the defining values. These working definitions draw on Te Wānanga o Raukawa’s own understanding from the body of knowledge, mātauranga Māori and the teachings of the Wānanga.

The designs for these kaupapa are etched on the walls of Ngā Purapura (Institute for Māori lifestyle Advancement), and the artist interpretation is also featured.

Ahakoa tiki atu ai i ngā kōrero i te more o te whenua, i te ninihi o te moana, i ngā rangi tūhāhā, kia hoki mai rā rātou, e kore. Ko te akaaka o te wairua ki a rātou mā ō tātou mate, ko te akaaka o te whenua ki a tātou te hunga ora.

Kei ngā teretere pūmahara o te Wānanga, i hāpai i te mauri o Tāne i te Wānanga, koutou katoa i whakapeto ngoi nei i tēnei tau kia rangatira ai te tū a Te Wānanga o Raukawa, tēnā koutou katoa. I tiritiri ai koutou i te toi whenua o te mātauranga, ka purutia ai kia ū, ka purutia ai kia mau. I tū koutou hei kaitutungi i te ahi teretere o te reo, i te kanaku, i te hatete o te mātauranga kia muramura ai, kia kongange, kia pūkauri.

Me mihi ka tika ki te kāhui tauira i piri mai ki tēnei Wānanga, kia whāngaia koutou ki ngā kai-mānga, ki ngā kai-mārō anō hoki kia pehapeha ai te korokoro, kia koto, kia tata te ruaki. I tae mai koutou ki te kapo i ngā kura huna i te kapu o ngā ringa o teretere pūmahara. Kua whakatinanatia te pito mata, ā, he wā tōna ka tū koutou hei pāwhakawairua, hei iho pūmanawa mō te mātauranga, hei whakamaunga kanohi mō te iwi.

Ko te Pūrongo-ā-Tau o 2013 o Te Wānanga o Raukawa tēnei e hora ake nei me ngā kōrero mō ngā mahi me ngā tini kaupapa i whakahaeretia i te tau 2013.

E kore au e ngaro; He kākano i ruia mai i Rangiātea.

Kotahitanga

Whakapapa Whakapapa represents our common ancestry and history and the responsibility that we have to past and future generations. This responsibility can be a source of inspiration and motivation for all of the activities of the Wānanga. It also provides the basis of a connection between all of the people involved in the work of the Wānanga.

This is essential to the Māori world view. As a people we trace our descent from te kore, to te pō and eventually through to te ao mārama, where we are grounded to Papatūānuku and look upwards to Ranginui. Māori descriptions of the creation, conception to childbirth, the growth of a tree and the acquisition of knowledge are all whakapapa based recitals.

Nā Chris Gerretzen Three lines of birth, life and death create the base and back of the wave formed from the foundations of our tūpuna.

These lines are broken by the effects of colonisation.

‘Symbolic waves of generations continuously lapping the land’.

Kotahitanga involves developing and maintaining a unity of purpose and direction and avoiding approaches and decisions that lead to division and disharmony. A commitment by the institution through oneness of mind and action to achieving its vision would be the expression of kotahitanga. All are actively encouraged to make their contribution, to have their say. What is best and appropriate for the institution will be agreed and determined collectively.

Te reo Māori is the medium through which Māori articulate and communicate meaning and understanding about their world view. The survival of our people as Māori will be enhanced if te reo Māori survives. We will not be able to maintain our uniqueness as a people without it.

The triangle symbolises the confederation of Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Toa, Te Ati Awa and unity.

They are all linked to each other representing both the strength and empowerment of our iwi, hapū and whānau.

The varying shades and textures remind us to embrace our uniqueness and to celebrate change.

Rangatiratanga

Te Reo Māori

Halting the decline and promoting the revival of te reo Māori has been a central focus of activity within the Confederation of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira for nearly three decades. As such, te reo Māori has been identified as a kaupapa of the Wānanga, and its revival central to not only the academic pursuits of the Wānanga, but to all of its activities.

Moving together as one in all facets of our lives empowering each other and creating stronger harmonious relationships.

The irregular movement and upright position of the triangles illustrates the acquisition of knowledge and an aspiration to strive for success and prosperity.

Ranginui and Papatūānuku and their children are here and now, our tūpuna are beside us. As such we become one with these ancient spiritual powers and carry out our role in creation and contribution to our future. This is whakapapa.

Te Reo Māori is valuable as the principal language for expressing tikanga and mātauranga Māori.

Nā Elaine Bevan

Nā Te Rangikapiki Fraser The concept of this design makes reference to the Tui. The Tui is celebrated for its unique sounding voice. ‘Mehe korokoro Tui’ – Like the throat of a Tui. Sometimes an orator or speaker of versatility and wit is referred to when this whakataukī is quoted.

The two birds face each other in conversation depicting the importance of communication to ensure the ongoing survival of te reo.

Rangatiratanga is the expression of the attributes of a rangatira (having chieftainship) including humility, leadership by example, generosity, altruism, diplomacy and knowledge of benefit to the people. It also means having a commitment to the community, using facts and honest information as well as legends and stories to make a case, relay a message or explain things in a way which binds people together, facilitating rather than commanding.

It is the fourth principle (self-determination) of Whakatupuranga Rua Mano. Te Wānanga o Raukawa acknowledges, aspires and encourages through the learning environment and in all of its activities, the rangatiratanga of individuals, whānau, hapū and iwi. It understands the importance of walking the talk, following through on commitments made, manaakitanga, integrity and honesty.

Nā Tākuta Ferris Mangopare: the mangopare (hammerhead shark) was revered by our tūpuna as a symbol of rangatiratanga, it possessed such power and authority over its domain that our tūpuna immortalised it in kōwhaiwhai.

Our planning, policies, development, course proposals and staff development have incorporated into them processes and facets that promote te reo Māori and ensure its survival within this institution and amongst our people.

Whanaungatanga

Manaakitanga People at Te Wānanga o Raukawa endeavour to express manaakitanga, or mana enhancing behaviour towards each other as staff and students and to others, taking care not to trample on another person’s mana. The concept of manaakitanga includes understanding tapu and mana, those special aspects of Māori which derive from their spiritual nature. Staff and students express mana-enhancing behaviour such as fairness and generosity towards each other, taking care to show respect and consideration. In pōwhiri on the marae, for example, the objective is to deal with the tapu and mana of the tangata-whenua and manuhiri in an enhancing, positive way. In our relationships with others we are aware of mana, our own and theirs.

3

Nā Te Tahi Takao The concept behind this design represents support, nourishment and to be hospitable.

This can be seen through the hand like designs where they are cupped to form embrace, therefore to manaaki someone.

Whanaungatanga is about being part of a larger whole, of the collective. Our people are our wealth. This system of kinship, including rights and reciprocal obligations, or utu that underpin the social organisation of whānau, hapū and iwi should be part of the life of the institution. Māori are related to all living things and thus express whanaungatanga with their surroundings. Whanaungatanga is about knowing you are not alone, but that you have a wider set of acquaintances that provide support, assistance, nurturing, guidance and direction when needed. Interdependence with each other rather than independence is the goal. Defined roles for kaumātua, mātua, rangatahi, tāne and wāhine are also part of whanaungatanga.

Nā Pip Devonshire Weaving is so often employed as a metaphorical statement in reference to bringing people together.

Takitahi is simplistic, creating a textile of strength and durability, qualities required to maintain and develop whānau, hapū and iwi objectives.

Takirua and takitoru exemplify fruition of activities through strong and active whanaungatanga.

4

Wairuatanga An emphasis on the fostering of wairuatanga is a unique feature of the Wānanga. Wairuatanga is about understanding and believing that there is a spiritual existence for Māori in addition to the physical. The physical world is represented by te ao mārama, surrounded and connected to ngā rangi tūhāhā and ngā pō, the spiritual realms. The spiritual world is an important part of reality for Māori, which is integral to day-to-day activities and necessary for their successful endeavours. Māori represent and live these realms, having both a taha kikokiko and a taha wairua. Māori are intimately connected spiritually to their environment, maunga, awa, moana and marae, all of which have their own wairua.

The wairua of a person requires nourishment as regularly as the tinana, and the forms of nourishment differ among people.

The environs of Te Wānanga o Raukawa are nourishing and nurturing of the wairuatanga of staff and students.

Ūkaipōtanga Ūkaipōtanga is about having a sense of importance, belonging and contribution. It shows the importance of tūrangawaewae, te hau kāinga, for people to ground themselves to the land and home. Through ūkaipō Māori will find themselves, their strength and their energy. Having a place where you belong, where you count, where you are important and where you can contribute is essential for Māori wellbeing. As a whole person with your identity intact, you can make your contribution.

Nā Mari Ropata Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Rito Within this design I have used the takarangi(double inter-locking spiral) and have centered it as the main focus to what I perceive as being wairuatanga. From this permeates two distinctive lines of thought/action/ motion depicted in the congruent koru either end of the central takarangi spiral.

The inter-locking spirals which start from the centre and move outwards are a representation of the turbulence of spirits both good and evil, one without the other would be non- existent, the separation of Rangi and Papa, and with that the coming of light and knowledge.

Financial wellbeing is but one aspect of this kaupapa. It is important for viability purposes, however it will never be viewed as a primary motivator for Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

Nā Te Kura ā Iwi o Whakatupuranga Rua Mano (WRM)

Nā Chris Gerretzen

The Process Our tamariki were asked to draw a picture of what kaitiakitanga means to them. We were presented with a diverse range of images that depicted an even wider range of whakaaro. When we asked the kids to speak to their pieces several strong themes became evident. These were:

Male, female and child within the form of a hāpu woman.

Breastfeeding of the newborn alludes to the necessity for us to be fed from our ūkaipo, from home, where the pito has been buried.

He kawenga nui mā tātou te kaitiakitanga ka tika; • kia tiakina ngā taonga tuku iho , ko te reo rangatira, ko te mātauranga Māori, ngā tikanga, ngā

kaupapa taea noatia ngā taonga katoa o te Māori, • kia hapaitia te mana o te tangata • kia tiakina hoki te taiao me ōna āhuatanga katoa.

We are the kaitiaki of our children, our whānau, our hapū, our iwi, our environment and all of the taonga that these involve. It is a role we must take seriously. We all have an obligation in this regard. We must take responsibility as Māori and this must be reflected in the way that we conduct ourselves as a people.

• • • • •

protecting/defending whānau, hapū, iwi taonga people mātauranga Māori

• • • •

restoring, maintaining taiao- land, water, air kai culture/tikanga

We took these ideas and some of the kids’ simple symbols and developed them into what could be described as a naive and child-like representation of kaitiakitanga.

The Design – an explanation Manawa

The presence of Iwi and Hāpū Studies as a generic programme of study highlights the importance of this kaupapa.

The design is in the form of kōwhaiwhai. The manawa (central line) is made up of three components.

Pūkengatanga

5

Preserving and maintaining the existence, core capability and viability of Te Wānanga o Raukawa so it can continue to fulfil its functions and duties, is the essence of this kaupapa. This kaupapa has several facets including:

a. the preservation of taonga, e.g. te reo, tikanga, kōrero-ā-iwi b. ensuring quality and safety in all activities c. maintaining prudent financial management policies and practices to ensure Te Wānanga o

Raukawa does not encounter financial distress and d. accountability to the founding iwi, Te Mana Whakahaere and to the Crown.

The congruent koru either end are representational of the celestial (Kauwae runga) and the terrestrial (Kauwae raro) realms. The design could be seen as a source of reflection and that the daily battle for both students & staff alike is that division of these realms are constantly pulling outwards from the centre(or self) to the exterior, the remaining bulb of the koru, reaching upwards and outwards to the goals that each person has set for themselves on their pathway to discovery, knowledge and enlightenment.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa is considered more than a place of employment. The benefits derived from people being stimulated in their work and study, feeling energetic, believing they are important and having a contribution to make are considerable.

Te ako, te pupuri, te waihanga, teaching, preserving and creating mātauranga Māori and having recognised abilities in these areas is a reflection of pūkengatanga. Excellence in mātauranga Māori academic pursuits is fundamental to the purpose of the Wānanga. This should not be to the exclusion of mātauranga drawn from other traditions, but the mātauranga Māori continuum is the priority and the focus at Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

Kaitiakitanga

Nā Tākuta Ferris Pūkengatanga: this kōwhaiwhai has been designed to represent the spirit of innovation our tūpuna were famous for.

It’s unique style is reflective of the challenges contemporary Māori face and the need to drive our culture forward into the 21st century whilst ensuring the integrity of our tūpuna is maintained.

These represent three different whakaaro: 1. whānau, hapū and iwi 2. ART 3. water (ngaru), people (stylised purapura whetū), land (niho taniwha) and air (all surrounding spaces) Pātaka Kai In each corner of the manawa is a representation of a pātaka kai. It is filled with pātiki which represents the kai (mātauranga, tikanga, kai etc.) that sustains us and promotes our well being.

Kaitiaki The arms and hands are representative of kaitiaki. They face out in a stance of protection and defence.

They are the limbs of all that they protect. They represent all that we say , think and do to retrieve, restore/ revive, maintain and develop all that we are (as Māori).

Matiu Rei Ngāti Toa Rangatira

Ngā Purutanga Mauri are the guardians of tikanga and kawa at Te Wānanga o Raukawa and act as senior scholars and advisers on a range of issues important to its ongoing development.

Ngā Purutanga Mauri met regularly throughout the year and we are indebted to them for their contributions. The advice received from Ngā Purutanga Mauri in all aspects of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa teaching programme is invaluable, particularly within the Iwi and Hapū Studies department.

Assistance provided by Ngā Purutanga Mauri includes teaching in the classroom and panel membership as well as advice given to staff and students on a more personal basis. The support and guidance of Ngā Purutanga Mauri at pōwhiri and noho is freely given.

Activities undertaken in 2013 included: Iwikatea Nicholson continued to supervise year 3 undergraduate students engaged in the research and presentation of their Iwi and Hapū Studies Oral Literature paper. He also provided supervision of postgraduate students studying mōteatea.

As Ahorangi, Iwikatea Nicholson spent a significant amount of time checking and signing all of the graduands’ certificates. Te Rā Whakapūmau began with karakia offered by Iwikatea.

Akuhata Akuhata represented Ngā Purutanga Mauri on the Academic Board and was called upon at times to lead karakia Karaitiana for various hui.

Whatarangi Winiata continued his work within Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga while also serving as the Ngā Purutanga Mauri representative on the Te Wānanga o Raukawa governance review team.

He was appointed inaugural chair of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa Foundation. Iwikatea Nicholson, Pita Richardson and Matiu Rei were also founding members of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa Foundation.

Pita Richardson was a member of the panel tasked with the review of the Tāhuhu Ahunga Tikanga (Master of Māori Laws and Philosophy) programme.

The group also provided key advice in various ongoing projects including the re-establishment of Reo FM, the Poupou Huia te Reo programme and the creation of a Te Wānanga o Raukawa alumni group.

Ngā purutanga mauri

Ngā Purutanga Mauri were pleased to have opportunities during the year to meet informally over afternoon tea with members of Te Mana Whakahaere and staff. They also enjoyed attending special events such as the Te Tākupu publication launches, the Tuia te Ako conference and the Kura Reo hosted in Ōtaki by the Wānanga.

The advice received from Ngā Purutanga Mauri was pivotal to the success of the 2013 Hui Whakakaupapa for which Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga took responsibility. The hui focused on sites of significance to Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira (The ART Confederation).

The generosity by our pakeke (elders) to share their time and knowledge with members of Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga in the development of this hui was deeply appreciated.

Iwi representatives on Te Mana Whakahaere requested Ngā Purutanga Mauri attendance at their meetings. Ngā Purutanga Mauri considered that a weaving of the two groups would be a positive move.

Ngā Purutanga Mauri are charged with receiving submissions for Te Kāurutanga the highest academic achievement at Te Wānanga o Raukawa. The kaihautū of Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga, Ani Mikaere is currently enrolled in Te Kāurutanga and reported during the year on progress with her study. The kaihautū of Te Whare Kōkiri, Hohaia Collier continued his research and writing and Pou Akoranga, Pakake Winiata, submitted a proposal for acceptance to the Te Kāurutanga programme which was approved and viewed as an interesting, exciting and valuable piece of work.

The opportunity to mihi to graduates is appreciated by our kaumātua. In December Ngā Purutanga Mauri greeted all 2013 graduands crossing the stage and presented and endorsed tohu for the year.

The presence and mana of Ngā Purutanga Mauri is crucial to the day’s success and we are very grateful for their contribution.

Discussions with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) about the Te Wānanga o Raukawa 2012 Mātauranga Māori Evaluative Quality Assurance (MM EQA) External Evaluation Review (EER) were followed with interest. Ngā Purutanga Mauri’s view was that the Wānanga needed to make a point about partnership and the Crown’s duty under the Treaty of Waitangi to actively protect taonga. They considered that the MMEQA EER and subsequent report was inconsistent with NZQA’s own policies as set out in their Strategic Plan.

It is imperative that the Crown give expression to kaupapa tuku iho, including te reo Māori, in their dealings with us and that all be mana enhancing to both parties. A resolution was made that “Kia Māori” be accepted as the plan and that this be Te Wānanga o Raukawa’s focus for the next ten years to deliver the message from our own point of view.

He Mihi We thank Ngā Purutanga Mauri for their service to Te Wānanga o Raukawa. Their sharing of knowledge and wisdom and the support given to the Wānanga in 2013 ensures this tikanga Māori institution keeps its kaupapa to the fore in all of its activities.

The people are our wealth, develop and retain them.

Te reo is a taonga, halt the decline and revive it.

Marae are our principal homes, maintain and respect them.

Self determination, look for opportunities to develop as Māori.

E ngā pakeke, ka nui te mihi.

Whakataka te hau ki te uru Whakataka te hau ki te tonga Kia mākinakina ki uta Kia mātaratara ki tai E hī ake ana te atakura He huka he tio he hauhū Tihe Mauriora E rau rangatira mā tēnā koutou katoa.

I am honoured to contribute on behalf of Te Mana Whakahaere to the 2013 annual report for Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

It is pleasing to note that Te Wānanga o Raukawa continues to build on the advances made in the previous year and further our mission as a kaupapa based, values driven entity.

After considerable effort Te Mana Whakahaere welcomed the establishment of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa Foundation and agreed unanimously to appoint Emeritus Professor Whatarangi Winiata as the inaugural chair. The Foundation has set about preparing their kaupapa and guiding principles, developing their operating systems and agreeing their subcommittee structure and priorities. We wish the Foundation well as it considers ways in which it can support the interests of Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

The governance review experienced in other parts of the tertiary sector has made its way into the three Wānanga. Te Wānanga o Raukawa participated and reinforced the need to maintain the involvement of our founding iwi in our governance arrangements and retain the power to appoint the chair. As the process unfolds it is reassuring to note that the intended design ensures these imperatives will not be undermined. During the year Queenie Rikihana-Hyland was appointed to Te Mana Whakahaere for a further term. Daphne Luke and Anne Carter were also appointed by Minister Joyce. These appointments provided us with an opportunity to review the composition and terms of reference of our governance committees that play such an important role. These appointments and the contributions made by all the members of Te Mana Whakahaere are most appreciated.

The current members of Te Mana Whakahaere are as follows:

Te Mana Whakahaere has continued its effort to be visible and transparent to our iwi founders.

We have successfully implemented board meetings at marae in our region, coordinated activities involving Ngā Purutanga Mauri, staff and members of Te Mana Whakahaere and enabled the Tumuaki reports tabled at our meetings to be used by our iwi representatives for reporting back to their appointing bodies. These efforts will continue and where possible we will implement further enhancements in order to ensure transparency and that our founding iwi remain central to our existence.

It is unfortunate though that such achievement cannot be incorporated in the EPI’s for the Wānanga as tāhuhu degrees are at level 9 and deemed to be by thesis and as such can attract Performance Based Research Funding (PBRF). This is even more regrettable given our position on PBRF that Te Wānanga o Raukawa has continuously brought to the attention of firstly the Tertiary Education Commission and more recently the Ministry of Education. We have consistently objected to the design of the PBRF since inception asserting the methodologies are based on western ideology and do not accommodate a Māori world view. We have made our position clear and await a resolution to this problem. This is becoming a matter of considerable concern as we see other tertiary institutions participating to their benefit.

NB: The Chair of Te Mana Whakahaere and the Tumuaki are ex-officio on all Te Mana Whakahaere committees.

The relevance and currency of kaupapa has recently been considered by Te Mana Whakahaere. A paper prepared by our Tumuaki and received by Te Mana Whakahaere reinforced the belief that all involved at Te Wānanga o Raukawa should be seen as advocates of kaupapa and tikanga. In response Te Mana Whakahaere intends on developing a methodology against which we might assess how well we the members of Te Mana Whakahaere rate as a board in a kaupapa and tikanga framework.

We look forward to the completion of this work.

During the course of this year the tension between kāwanatanga and tino rangatiratanga became more evident and challenged Te Wānanga o Raukawa on many fronts. We shared our views with government officials and attempted to reflect on how this might be better managed. The fact that Wānanga must pursue our activities in a way that is consistent with āhuatanga Māori according to tikanga Māori means that one size cannot fit all entities. This is evidenced in no greater manner than the Educational Performance Indicators (EPI’s) which are measures based on such a premise and are matters of continuing concern to Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

As we embark on a new academic year we can reflect on 2013 as a time where further improvements have been secured, educational achievement measures have improved, further improvements in our financial management are evident, our capital assets are protected, relationships have been enhanced and plans put in place to further advance Te Wānanga o Raukawa as a major contributor towards outcomes that ensure the survival of Māori as a people. We at Te Wānanga o Raukawa are indeed very fortunate that we have people involved of such quality and calibre who are dedicated to such a mission.

The Mātauranga Māori Evaluative Quality Assurance (MM EQA) External Evaluation Review (EER) conducted by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) necessitated careful scrutiny by Te Mana Whakahaere and our Tumuaki. Concern was initially expressed about a number of inaccuracies and the need to ensure that what is reported is factual and evidence based. As a result of concerted discussion with NZQA it has been determined to repeat the exercise and while frustrating for all parties this will enable a proper kaupapa-based process to be implemented.

The Targeted Review of Qualifications was an issue addressed in last year’s annual report. These concerns are being addressed through a proposal to create a space on the framework for Wānanga qualifications that meet a uniquely iwi definition. While the detail is still to be developed we are optimistic that with goodwill from all parties a resolution can be found.

Te Rā Whakapūmau (Graduation) 2013 was again a highlight for our Wānanga witnessing the largest ever cohort of graduates in recent times. The waiata and haka performed by their accompanying whānau and supporters displayed their considerable pride and spoke volumes for the work of our staff and students. To have a record number of thirty nine tāhuhu (masters) degrees conferred, with many of the theses written in te reo Māori reinforces the focus Te Wānanga o Raukawa has on our reo and indicates the efforts made by our staff at Te Wānanga o Raukawa to raise the sights of our students in pursuit of higher academic honours.

We note with growing anxiety the increasing demands of Crown compliance required across the broad range of monitoring agencies. The cost, complexity and demands on staff to address such compliance measures is rising and necessitates much effort to balance resources between provision of education, pursuit of mātauranga Māori and redirecting valuable resource towards meeting departmental compliance needs. We believe the time has come for a review of such measures within the tertiary sector.

TE MANA WHAKAHAERE

MEMBER

Mereana Selby

We are able to reflect on the 2013 year and its challenges and opportunities, highs and lows, achievements and discoveries, pleased with the many indicators that signify we have made a valuable contribution to the survival of Māori as a people.

Building on the passion, support, belief and hard work of so many over the last 32 years of operation and inspired by the whakataukī, E kore au e ngaro; he kākano i ruia mai i Rangiātea, Te Wānanga o Raukawa is strong at heart and focussed on the next period ahead and what it can bring to our people.

Earlier in the year we were honoured to host a delegation from the Ainu, a tangata whenua group from Japan. Although separated by many miles and differing landscapes, the indigenous experience and the indigenous struggle is a shared one. The Ainu are facing many challenges with regard to the revival of their language and culture which is in a precarious state and it is through such encounters that we are able to share experiences on our journey and to learn from them about theirs.

The debate with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) over the status of their reports following the Mātauranga Māori Evaluative Quality Assurance (MM EQA) External Evaluation Review (EER) undertaken in 2012 continued throughout 2013. Ours was the first organisation to be assessed by way of the new MM EQA process. We were unhappy with the process and therefore not able to regard its outcomes as valid. Despite the best efforts of a very good panel we were convinced that the new tool was not, in fact, implemented but that there was a reversion to the old familiar External Evaluation Review (EER). The outcomes could not then be regarded as having been arrived at through a mātauranga Māori lens and were not therefore an expression of or aligned with kaupapa as prescribed in the MM EQA. Genuine attempts were made during the year to affect a repair job on the report. In the end, later in the year, agreement was reached that the problem could only be addressed by undergoing another evaluation. This creates more work for all concerned but we hope it will produce a report that reflects the process, holds integrity in that it is defendable by NZQA and most importantly is acceptable to ourselves.

Some progress was made towards a resolution on the other matter that has plagued us for several years; the Targeted Review of Qualifications (TRoQ). Since the early 1990s when first taking the decision to place our qualifications before NZQA for approval and accreditation we have emphasised the importance to us of rangatiratanga, that is, maintaining ownership and control over that which is ours, in this case, our qualifications. It became clear to us that one impact of the TRoQ was that the Crown was assuming ownership of qualifications by placing them on a national framework described as a public domain, accessible and deliverable by all who meet the NZQA requirements.

• The November meeting was a special meeting.

In February we were sorry to hear that a decision had been made to close Te Whare Wānanga o Te Pihopatanga o Aotearoa. For more than a decade Te Wānanga o Raukawa had been a site for its offices and provision of their qualifications, a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree. Those qualifications were designed to follow our academic model, that is, te reo Māori and Iwi and Hapū curricular alongside a specialisation, in their case, Atuatanga. In order that those students part way through their qualifications could have a pathway to complete their studies we sought and achieved interim approval from NZQA to offer their courses. This arrangement will continue through to 2016.

For the third year in a row we hosted a Kura Reo at Te Wānanga o Raukawa. The opportunity to support this kaupapa and also encourage staff to attend was welcomed. Around eighty enrolments from individuals who whakapapa to one of our three founding iwi were received. This is a positive for us. We are grateful to Pania Papa and Te Pairi Blake for their involvement with us and for the opportunity to manaaki their highly esteemed entourage of tutors.

A larger than usual number of poupou (certificate) enrolments were received this year. The popularity of courses such as the Poupou Whaikōrero, Poupou Pakari Tinana, Poupou Karanga, Poupou Toi and Poupou Whare Tapere, particularly on marae, is an important signal to us. Although we are reluctant to increase our offerings at poupou level we have seen the attractiveness of these courses for the purposes of increasing cultural capacity for hapū. They also serve as good introductory or taster courses for the Wānanga experience. The Poupou Huia Te Reo online language course was popular again this year. We also note its attraction to non Māori. This has influenced the volume of Māori enrolments and we want to keep an eye on this. It is clear that the online option, if done well, is attractive and we would like to be able to invest more in providing these kinds of offerings.

Our Wānanga community was struck with deep sadness in March when the husband of one of our senior staff, Helen Taiaroa, was the victim of a senseless and violent attack. The passing of George, a gentle, humble, hard working husband, father and koro, attracted huge national media attention.

The strength and fortitude of Helen and her children following this tragedy was admired by us all.

Our Wānanga community worked hard to support the family throughout this time.

We mourned the tragic loss of three loved and respected staff, all to illnesses. Hilda Te Wiata was a long serving and dedicated kaikōkiri for Te Whare Mātauranga. She bravely battled cancer for several years. Throughout her illness she insisted on maintaining a presence at work as much as she was able. In fact she was with us right up until a few days before she passed away. Our Ngāti Huia pakeke, James Hapeta had been with us for more than a decade and had filled several roles.

His loyalty to the Wānanga and love for his people meant that he always projected a cheerful and positive demeanour that lifted the spirits of those around him. We were very fortunate that when Borgia Hakaraia, our kuia from Ngāti Kapūmanawawhiti, retired from a long career in nursing, she agreed to work part time in our Whare Pukapuka. Despite her senior years her work ethic, helpful and friendly advice to all and support for Te Wānanga o Raukawa was always at a premium. All three are sadly missed. Our Wānanga is a richer place for their contributions.

19

The updated version of our own self assessment tool, the Kaupapa-Tikanga Matrix, came into effect this year. A revised and refined version of the earlier tool, it sets out fewer targets but maintains a full overview of the expression of kaupapa within the organisation. The Matrix has, for more than a decade, measured our performance against the ten guiding kaupapa of Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

It requires us to focus on the tikanga Māori organisation that we aspire to be and sets challenging targets. There have been some good gains and we are pleased with our progress in meeting our targets. Overall 95 percent of our targets were met and we know more challenges lie ahead.

In fact we saw, within the rules and guidelines, the potential for the Crown to determine many things about our qualifications thereby replacing rangatiratanga with kāwanatanga. This was unacceptable to us. Several hui throughout the year resulted in an agreement that a space on the framework for ‘iwi-wānanga’ qualifications would be created. The rules around definitions for inclusion and treatment of qualifications residing in that space are being worked on. The aim is to conclude this early in the new year.

In 2013: • 94 percent of our student body is Māori • 2420 students enrolled with us • 76 percent of our provision is at degree or post graduate level • 1800 of our students choose to learn at marae or other sites local to them • 40 is the average age of our students. 76 percent of our students study with us part time • 26 percent of students are under 25 years Te Wānanga o Raukawa were extremely pleased to award thirty nine masters’ degrees in 2013.

While some master’s programmes were delivered at the Ōtaki campus a significant number resulted from a decision taken in 2012 to, for the first time, respond to requests by marae based studies sites to offer the master programme - Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori. The confidence shown by the Pou Akoranga and Kaihautū for this programme being deliverable off site coupled with the enthusiasm and commitment of Kōmiti Mātauranga of the marae enabled us to proceed. Rather than taking a conservative approach we approved three tono; one from Te Ururangi o Te Mātauranga, our Ngāti Porou site at Te Araroa, one from Ngai Tawake near Kaikohe and the other from the Waikato-Tainui Endowment College in Hopuhopu. All three sites attracted good interest. We have received interest from other sites and will consider them for 2014.

The important contribution to the nation of twenty one of these theses written in te reo Māori cannot be overstated as a significant contribution to language revival and survival. The development, capacity and growth at local level for the hapū and whānau of each graduate is a significant expression of pūkengatanga.

Our academic performance has continued to improve for the last three years. This has been achieved as a result of hard work and careful planning but it has not deterred the Tertiary Education Commission from finding ways to impose funding penalties. We are trending upwards despite funding reductions. This comes at the expense of other enhancements we would like to implement and places unfair stress on an organisation that is focussed almost exclusively on a marginalised people who have been served poorly by the Crown. We will not be deterred from our core purpose in order to please the Crown and attract more funding. This means we will maintain our open entry policy and welcome any of our people who tell us they are motivated to learn and want to engage with us. The biggest academic and emotional challenges for most are the compulsory reo and iwi and hapū curricular but our students consistently tell us that it is these papers that are most meaningful in their development and discovery of being Māori.

Our engagement with Whitireia New Zealand in providing a site for the delivery of their carpentry course continued with a second cohort getting under way in July. The previous group had begun building a four bedroom house which the new group have picked up the job of completing. The presence of this group on our campus, all young Māori men, has added positively to the wairuatanga amongst us and has given us the confidence to explore other such arrangements in the future.

Our publishing unit, Te Tākupu, continued its good work with another set of publications. Te Ūkaipō 5 is the latest in a series of writings by Māori women, most of who are from The ART Confederation.

It includes a mix of academic pieces, writings in te reo, narratives, accounts, reflections and debates.

It is a good read. Such has been the popularity of this series that we are now challenged to produce the complementary version, a collection of writings by Māori men. This would be a welcome addition.

Other publications in 2013 include, Te Huarahi o Te Ora and Kei Tua o Te Pae (co published with the New Zealand Council for Educational Research).

The regular presence on campus of our senior scholars, Ngā Purutanga Mauri, is a strong reference point for us as we seek their invaluable advice and scrutiny. The discussions and explanations on a range of matters, including our engagements with the Crown, our performance as an organisation and, of course, tikanga is important to us. Their role in guiding candidates in our Te Kāurutanga programme, the highest qualification we offer and accessible only by iwi, is a distinctive model.

The year drew to a close with the biggest annual event on our calendar year, Te Rā Whakapumau.

We were thrilled to have more graduates than ever before. The celebration was shared with in excess of 2,000 whānau members and friends who attended in support of loved ones on the day.

While the highlight was the conferring of thirty nine qualifications, ten of which were achieved by our staff, seeing the pride and thrills on the faces of all those who received certificates and taonga is not only a reflection of their hard work and determination but also an affirmation of the work we do, the importance of our contribution and the impacts on the lives of our people.

Staff enjoyed a new kind of Hui Whakakaupapa experience this year. A road tour including part of the southern portion of the rohe of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Toa Rangatira The ART Confederation took place. The tour was thoughtfully planned by Te Kāhui Whakatupu Mātauranga with guides providing commentary in Māori and English as we travelled from Ōtaki down the coast to Hongoeka and Takapūwahia including Whitireia maunga. With stops and historical accounts provided at a range of sites the experience for our staff in connecting them with the history and whakapapa of The ART Confederation was a memorable and special experience which cannot be replicated in the four walls of a classroom.

The Academic Board is a subcommittee of Te Mana Whakahaere and reports to them at regular intervals. Its role is to lead and direct academic activity and ensure academic standards are maintained. The Board meets monthly.

Regular reports to the Board included: • Enrolment status • Programme development • Changes to existing programmes • Programme evaluation • Status of programme reviews • Mātairua • Monitoring In depth discussions were held regarding the effect of Crown policies on the Wānanga, in particular the New Zealand Qualifications Authority’s (NZQA) Targeted Review of Qualifications and the NZQA Mātauranga Māori Evaluative Quality Assurance (MM EQA) External Evaluation Review progress.

The Board was supportive of Te Kāhui Akoranga discussions about kaiwhakaako excellence in the classroom, monitoring, feedback and peer assessment. A comprehensive plan, Te Ara Ake, that included marketing and promotions, a vocational and employment focus, the Wānanga profile in the community, the academic model, the learning environment, the academic enrolment process and staff training was developed during the year. Business plans were required and will be referred to Te Mana Whakahaere in 2014.

While the Wānanga is pleased with its continued improvement and performance, discussions included strategies to improve our educational performance, academic counseling and ensuring our students’ first noho is inspirational. The aim was to have no programmes with a less than 50 percent completion rate.

Poutuarongo Toiora Whānau underwent significant changes to accommodate the four year study requirements for social work registration. Newly approved programmes were Poupou Whaikōrero, Poupou Toi Whakarākai and Poupou Ahi Kā.

ACADEMIC BOARD

The Board recognised the increased workload of practical courses that require workshops and were supportive of the proposed creative assessment options. An example would be Tāhuhu Toi having a final assessment based on a major art piece and associated exhibitions in place of a written thesis.

This was another busy year for the Academic Board. Opportunities to work with other educational institutions were identified. These organisations include Te Taura Whiri i te Reo, Te Wānanga o Raukawa through Te Panekiritanga o te Reo, Te Tauihu o Ngā Wānanga and the Waikato-Tainui College for Research and Development. Work programmes with Whitireia New Zealand and the Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology (NMIT) continued. The second cohort of pre-trade students from Whitireia New Zealand was with us for much of 2013. An aquaculture course from NMIT was investigated by Te Puna staff.

Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira founded Te Wānanga o Raukawa in 1981 and have a continuing presence.

This group is responsible for monitoring the overall management of the Wānanga in its day to day activities. It meets monthly, receives reports from areas of responsibility and makes recommendations as appropriate. Enrolments were another important area of discussion with a focus on reaching the Wānanga’s EFTS target. Financial reports were also presented and discussed at each meeting.

The student experience remains the focus of attention of which the following is part of the comprehensive plan, Te Ara Ake: • In 2013 a gradual implementation of digital readings was introduced with the exception of the year one undergraduate programmes. All readings except for year 1 of the undergraduate programme were converted to electronic format and smartboard technology was introduced to the campus.

• Reestablishment of the student centre (Te Rōpū Whāiti o ngā Tauira) was also a focus of discussion.

• A proposal was presented for whare noho (residentials) that are more personally focused so that staff and students get to know each other well.

• A proposal of delivering from a central location to multiple delivery sites.

Ngā Kaihautū discussed internal developments during the year which included: • • • • • •

A highlight of the year was the annual Hui Whakakaupapa, planned by Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga, which aims to increase staff understanding of kaupapa and our relationships with each other.

There was ongoing discussion about aspects of our various relationships with the Crown, particularly the New Zealand Qualifications Authority and the Tertiary Education Commission. We took the opportunity during a visit by government listed MP Claudette Hauiti to engage in further discussion.

Other matters attended to included a pledge to support Te Mata o te Ora strategies and initiatives including the Te Whare Oranga, Tūpeka Kore 2015, Kia Tupu te Ora and whare discussions about kaiāwhinatanga to assist staff to understand the definition of kaiāwhinatanga.

2013 was a year of balancing competing priorities, those that required a high level of performance to ensure staff and student success along with an ever decreasing level of funding. Without the dedication of staff, this would not have been possible. It was important to conduct the regular review of salaries to keep faith with our staff and offer secure employment with attractive conditions. We are pleased that we have succeeded.

Te Whare o te Tumuaki

Annual discussions have maintained a particular format for several years and a change that better reflected our continued development of kaupapa based performance was presented. The template is called He Kōrerorero a Tau and will be trialled for 2014, and reflects more fully both current performance and future development for staff. Feedback has so far been positive and we are looking forward to the review of He Kōrerorero a Tau in the next twelve to eighteen months.

We were extremely pleased by the high rate of successful study completed by staff in 2013 as well as the calibre of our publications, conference attendance and exhibitions.

With the closure of Te Whare Wānanga o Te Pīhopatanga o Aotearoa we were tasked with implementing the transition of their qualifications and students to Te Wānanga o Raukawa. We are pleased that these students are now part of the Wānanga whānau.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa had been in discussions with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority regarding the Targeted Review of Qualifications and agreement to create a space for ‘iwi-wānanga’ qualifications. This resulted in a small working party from Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiarangi, Te Wānanga o Aotearoa and Te Wānanga o Raukawa, which included the Office of the Tumuaki. The group has commenced work on the rules and definitions for the iwi-wānanga space.

In 2013 an acceleration of our discussions with the Ministry of Education regarding our position on research funding culminated with a paper stating our position to which we await a response.

Preparation for the annual report and audit is a considerable portion of our work. We continue to provide information and tell our story and have begun to make some visual changes putting faces to names, with the addition of our highlights and events throughout the year.

A sign of the times is the ever increasing level of compliance and policy monitoring which is time consuming and deflects from our capacity to strategise for the future.

The Kaupapa, Tikanga and Performance Matrix (our Statement of Service Performance) is another body of work which indicates our ability to meet the agreed criteria and compare past and present performance in accordance with our guiding kaupapa. There have been some challenges and some major achievements. This provides opportunities to make improvements and to celebrate our achievements.

E ono ngā whare o Te Kāhui Akoranga, ko Te Whare Iwi, Hapū, Reo, ko te Te Whare Toi, ko Te Whare Kōkiri, ko Te Whare Mātauranga, ko Te Whare Oranga tae atu ki Te Whare Hāpai Akoranga. He arataki, he ārahi, he manaaki, he atawhai i ngā whare nei te wāhi ki a au, ki te Pou Akoranga hei whakatutuki i te whāinga matua a Te Kāhui Akoranga.

Kia whakatupuria he kāhui pūkenga whai mana, hei tō mai i te marea e ngākaunui ana ki te whai i te mātauranga e kounga ana, e ora ai rātou.

To develop a community of scholars whose reputation is established and growing, who in their own right as beacons are attracting students to their programmes which in terms of quality are second to none.

The pathway to achievement for the Kāhui Akoranga is through the expression of kaupapa in its many areas of endeavour.

Manaakitanga There was simply no letting up when it came to our drive to improve our retention and completions and thus the students’ educational experience. Work undertaken in 2012 was continued in 2013 including: • Ensuring students enrolled with us were committed and well informed.

• Te Taituarā Ākonga to be operational from the start of the year with contact and assistance maintained with students to support the completion of assignments.

• Ensuring students had an inspiring and empowering experience at all noho.

• Withdrawing students who were not attending.

• Ongoing thorough reconciliations throughout the year.

• Providing kura tautoko nationwide.

Rangatiratanga Engagement with the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) and the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) continued throughout the year. The TEC engagement addressed Hei Whakamaunga Atu (Investment Plan) and was business as usual. The work with NZQA continued to challenge us as in addition to the issues related to the Targeted Review of Qualifications (TRoQ) and the Mātauranga Māori Evaluative Quality Assurance (MM EQA) we were unhappy with the External Evaluative Review (EER) report. A series of meetings with NZQA took place to address all three issues and solutions were found. An ‘iwi-wānanga space’ has been created and the MM EQA will be repeated in March 2014, this time adhering closely to the MM EQA framework.

We maintained relationships with Māori and other organisations including Te Taura Whiri i Te Reo (Kura Reo), Te Wānanga o Aotearoa through Te Panekiretanga o Te Reo, Te Tauihu o Ngā Wānanga, and the Waikato-Tainui College for Research and Development. Work programmes with Whitireia New Zealand and the Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology (NMIT) continued. The second intake of pre-trades students from Whitireia New Zealand were with us for much of 2013. An aquaculture course from NMIT was investigated by Te Puna staff.

Hei kanohi kitea – as a seen face. Our staff are actively encouraged to be ‘seen ‘and offer support at various important occasions and activities for the Wānanga. To support this initiative during the year I supported Te Matatini in Rotorua, the Te Aute Trust Board, Kura Reo around the motu, Te Panikiretanga o Te Reo, Te Matapunenga and Māori Television.

Whanaungatanga Activity to strengthen our connections with marae, kura and our founding iwi was ongoing throughout the year. The declining influence of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira in the activities of the Wānanga was addressed through taking the staff on a journey through the southern part of the rohe as part of our hui whakakaupapa event this year. A programme specifically aimed at The ART Confederation was also launched to increase enrolments.

Te Rā Whakapūmau (graduation) in December was the major whanaungatanga activity of the year with over 500 graduates walking the stage in Ōtaki and 700 at other venues around the country. There was an unprecedented number in attendance for the graduation, a glorious day of whanaungatanga.

The Wānanga again hosted a kura reo for five days for 170 students in July. Thirty of our staff and a further fifty from the rohe attended. The Wānanga is now a popular venue for this Te Taura Whiri i Te Reo programme.

The Kāhui Akoranga has become an important group that has a strong sense of unity and purpose.

The group met monthly and progressed: • Personal development plans for all akoranga staff involving plans for further advanced study, the development of reo proficiency and the enhancement of service delivery and teaching.

• The further development of Te Ara Ake (refresh plan) for the Wānanga.

• The development of centres of excellence.

• The establishment of a te reo Māori academy for research and development.

• Looking after the student from enrolment through to employment.

• Ongoing improvement in our education performance.

• Refining the academic model to utilise synergies and create a realistic study load.

• Committing to a blended learning approach.

The staff of the Wānanga continued to perform well at events where they were asked to participate, including open days, promotional events, graduation and at other times.

We continued coming together on a Monday morning for karakia as a campus in Ōtaki to begin our week’s work. The various boards and committees met regularly and kept the staff informed of their deliberations which included Ngā Kaihautū, Academic Board and Ngā Purutanga Mauri.

The tumuaki, pou whakahaere and pou akoranga also met regularly as a senior management team and kept our various kāhui informed. Two pou were the acting tumuaki for a five week period in August and September.

Wairuatanga Organising and engaging in wairua nourishing activity was an ongoing challenge. The trip to landmarks of historical importance and the southern marae during the hui whakakaupapa was an important wairua nourishing event, as was the graduation ceremony. The Te Taura Whiri i te Reo kura reo held in July was also an uplifting event for staff and students.

We had several staff pass away during the year. These events were wairuatanga events and touched all the staff as each made their contribution to the tangihanga, whether it was as cooks providing manaakitanga or callers and speakers using their skills in te reo and tikanga Māori. These were very important and memorable events. Ūkaipōtanga The work to establish seven whare pūkenga or centres of excellence continued in 2013. A great deal of planning and development is required. The intention is to ensure each whare is largely independent, self sustaining in terms of staff, provides high quality research based programmes and is well led and managed.

The whare managers who were appointed to oversee the everyday management and administration of the whare were reviewed. The initiative required more planning to ensure the freeing up of kaihautū to provide academic leadership and contribute to activities that are campus wide. The intention remains to establish such positions in all whare akoranga. Staff in Whare Oranga and Te Puna investigated the building of a green house on campus and retrofitting of our buildings for insulation. This is an ongoing project.

A good deal of effort went into all noho on the Ōtaki campus to make them remarkable and memorable for students. Ensuring they had a good standard of accommodation and kai and that lessons were educational and exciting was a major focus given the contribution made to retention and completions.

Pūkengatanga The Kāhui Akoranga, ably led by the kaihautū of each whare, continued to implement plans to meet the vision statement of the kāhui. The Personal Development Plan and Whare research projects were discussed and developed with the intention of ensuring all Kāhui Akoranga staff hold master’s, Te Kāurutanga (Te Wānanga o Raukawa highest academic achievement), are fluent in te reo Māori, are enthused by their whakatupu mātauranga activity and are excellent deliverers and administrators by 2016.

The Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori (TMM) was a stellar performer in 2013. An unprecedented number of theses were completed at the four delivery venues around the country. Thirty TMM students graduated at the end of the year, matching the previous year’s completion rate of 75 percent. The total Tāhuhu graduating group reached 39 in 2013.

Staff took opportunities to express their pūkengatanga through participation in conferences hosted by the Wānanga and elsewhere, mounting exhibitions, contributing to publications and completing studies. I completed my studies in tohungatanga as part of Te Matapunenga and began Te Kāurutanga studies. An application to attend the World Indigenous Peoples’ Conference on Education by myself and two akoranga kaihautū was accepted.

The popularity of poupou or certificate programmes in visual arts, performing arts, whaikōrero and te reo Māori continued. This level of study, together with low fees was very attractive and many new students enrolled. The natural progression for these students will be to heke (diploma) enrolments in 2014.

Kaitiakitanga Healthy lifestyles and personal wellbeing, exercise and nutrition from a tikanga and kaupapa Māori perspective was well entrenched in 2013. The number of staff, students and kaumātua utilising Ngā Purapura increased and was normalised for many.

Te Ara Ake (refresh plan) continued to influence our plans for the future and included: • • • • • • • • • •

Whakapapa The significant educational facility planned for in 2012 was set aside last year. Alternative options were considered that were smaller in scale but were still able to accommodate the carvings of Te Whetū Mārama o te ata Kereama. There remains a desire to create a multipurpose educational facility.

The six akoranga whare met with the Tumuaki and Pou Akoranga to discuss the development of a whakatupu mātauranga project for each whare that will inform their classrooms and make a contribution to our people. The whare were enthusiastic about working together on a group project as opposed to individual research. The projects are one to two years in duration.

Te Reo The capacity of staff in te reo Māori was a major priority and all staff are expected to progress their studies in te reo towards proficiency by 2016. It is pleasing to see that student completions in te reo increased in 2013 and this along with increased staff competency augurs well for the revitalisation of te reo Māori. It is a significant contribution to Māori as a people.

Hemi Tahuparae

The academic programmes that sit within Te Whare Toi are: Toi Whakarākai (Carving and Weaving) Hiko-rau (3D Animation) Whare Tapere (Literary Performing Arts) Puna Maumahara (Information Management) A key focus for Te Whare Toi is the arts in their multi-faceted forms. Our students are introduced to the art forms and processes of tūpuna Māori that have been handed down through the generations to gain an understanding of taonga and their origins. Students can expect their studies to include a mix of theory alongside practical application and composition. Examples may include 3D animation depicting iwi narratives, composition of waiata and mōteatea encompassing symbolism, imagery and social values providing a window into the past, whakairo rākau giving a physical presence to thought embellishing the visual landscape and raranga continually weaving muka threads into ‘te kahu mutunga kore ’the endless cloak’. Such exposure to a wide range of art forms gives voice to our taonga ensuring their kōrero remains intact for the generations to come. All of these elements complement each other on the journey forward into the contemporary Māori art movement of today.

Our programmes aim to create repositories of knowledge belonging to iwi, hapū and whānau and as such are underpinned by whakapapa providing genealogical links to taonga tuku iho. Taonga tuku iho refers to those possessions considered to be the most precious and valued, that have genealogical links and are handed down to succeeding generations to ensure iwi, hapū and whānau identity and whakapapa remain intact.

The staff of Te Whare Toi always endeavour to open doorways for the many students on their journey into the world of the arts of our ancestors. This year saw our students create some stunning pieces of art work. The time and energy spent to create these fine art works saw night turn into day and day into night without realising the time passing by. This alone was testimony to their desire and commitment to create.

The course gave those with the desire to follow this path a glimpse into the world that lay ahead. All areas experienced an amazing level of desire from a very large number of people who enrolled into the programme from far and wide wanting to learn more about the art.

TE KĀHUI AKORANGA - TE WHARE TOI

e To h ar

Te Whare Toi staff and students had the opportunity to network with many renowned artists and collective organisations throughout New Zealand and abroad this year. Some of those contributions included:

Four of the five residential seminars of six days’ duration for Whare Tapere (performing arts) occurred on marae. This was a highlight for the learning and teaching of the performing arts traditions.

Students were immersed in an environment conducive to learning. The natural environment of the bush, open land and nearby river provided a harmonious context for composing new waiata/songs and actions. The carved meeting house with tukutuku panels and kōwhaiwhai were inspirational elements that reinforced the role of performing arts in the survival of Māori as a people. The overall experience was emotional, spiritual and cultural and aided the students to produce outstanding performances of their compositions. They became one with the symbols represented in the meeting house and portrayed this intimately through their compositions. Their experience was uplifting, empowering and rewarding. This affirms our teaching pedagogy that the marae is our principal home. The educational outcomes were enriching of their lives and have assisted them to be excellent kaitiaki or guardians of Te Whare Tapere, the performing arts traditions.

Hiko-rau, our 3D animation programme, provides students with the ability to investigate static forms and create movement whilst drawing on pūrākau (Māori stories and legends) as a source of inspiration to create a 3D animated story. For the students 2013 was a year where individual creativity using the tools led to a journey of self discovery in terms of being able to give expression to a Māori world view as an individual contribution to the arts.

TE KĀHUI AKORANGA - TE WHARE TOI

Although the year was a challenging one for students, it was met with a high degree of enthusiasm.

The students’ journey and research provided a platform from which the traditional elements of Māori art forms unique to their whānau, hapū and iwi was only limited by their imagination.

As a staff member of Massey University I am in the unique position of being able to study at Te Wānanga o Raukawa in an environment that is both culturally unique and comfortable for me as a Māori. I am studying for the postgraduate degree of Tāhuhu Whakahaere.

The learning environment is great; with like-minded classmates who have bonded like whānau and with teaching and administrative staff who take an intimate approach to making sure that what we need, we get. When we have it, we are able to truly wānanga and form alternate views and opinions. You never feel that what you contribute is irrelevant. There is this whānau feel to every noho where laughter is as important as learning. Because of my work commitments, there has always been manaaki extended to ensure that an alternative delivery is available. For me Te Wānanga o Raukawa is the embodiment of all that is good about being Māori.

He pīpī whāngai rua ahau – I am a fledgling that feeds twice.

Te Whare Kōkiri is the academic whare of Te Wānanga o Raukawa charged with the delivery of programmes which encompass mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge systems) and whakahaere (management, administration, hapū development, accounting methods and technology solutions).

In 2013 our whare also took responsibilty for the Aotearoatanga programme. This programme offers undergraduate and post graduate level education that maintains and advances karaititanga (christianity through mātauranga Māori) and was formerly run by Te Whare Wānanga o Pīhopatanga o Aotearoa. Our programmes were delivered from poupopu (certificate) to tāhuhu (master) level at sites stretching from Kaikohe in the north to Christchurch in the south and from the East Cape to Taranaki.

This year we again delivered the Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori programme in Ōtaki and at three other sites around the country. We were pleased to receive thirty nine students into this programme and support them during their thesis writing year. Living in their respective rohe (area) eliminated the requirement for students to travel to our Ōtaki campus and allowed them to concentrate solely on their whakatupu mātauranga. The hypothesis that studying within one’s ūkaipō, enabling immediate access to resources within the takiwā and rohe would support students to completion proved a success. While this extension in delivery resulted in a considerable increase in workload for staff we saw a spectacular rise in completions and were thrilled to report a 75 percent completion rate. A highly satisfying outcome for our 2013 year.

At the time of reporting our whare comprised thirteen staff members (ten academic and three administration) from various iwi. We have established tikanga ā whare that promote whanaungatanga and kotahitanga. This is important given the varying nature of our programmes and where they are delivered.

The integration and synergy of mātauranga Māori within our ‘technical’ programmes was a priority this year and enabled us to gain a greater understanding of our roles and most importantly, to develop and encourage students who can address their specialty from an aronga Māori, a Māori worldview.

49

In the area of mātauranga Māori, intense work was completed on embedding a focussed aronga Māori throughout all levels of study. The postgraduate level pūkenga (tutor) and the undergraduate level pūkenga provided inspiring leadership to raise completions to levels higher than the previous year. The minimum completions were exceeded again this year for all programmes and was led by the whakahaere pūkenga matua (senior tutor) who also worked closely with the kaikokiri (administrator) to ensure the recently acquired Aotearoatanga programme integrated well into our whare.

A key reason for these favourable results was the whare wide commitment to students prior to, during and after the delivery of any course of study. The development of tikanga that ensured students and off campus delivery sites received the support and encouragement they needed was another intergral component. Consistent attendance by all of our staff at kura tautoko and being in residence with the students during noho was another example of tikanga in practice. At the close of 2013 our course completions were consistent with and in all cases exceeded the completions targets set by the Academic Board.

Te Whare Kōkiri is fortunate to have qualified tutors and hard working administrators who understand their roles and functions. We are able to provide academic advice across all areas of the programmes offered because of the commitment that the whare has taken to ensuring that we are appropriately credentialled. Currently we have multiple tāhuhu (master’s) degree holders in Whakahaere (Management), Laws and Philosophy, Te Reo Māori and Mātauranga Māori. Our target is to have three further academic staff fully qualified in 2014 with Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori (2) and the other, a fully qualified Tāhuhu Whakahaere. We are aiming to have a further pūkenga qualified with a Tāhuhu Whakahaere in 2015.

With our student base both in Ōtaki and at various remote locations (including kura) around the motu, we have established good relationships with our students through a commitment to their needs and a focus on their progress.

Our senior kaikokiri is scheduled to complete her Poutāhu Whakahaere in 2014 and our two kaikokiri will complete undergraduate degrees in 2014 and 2015 respectively. The pūkenga matua completed year 2 of the three year Bachelor of Adult Education at Massey University and is passing on some very helpful advice to colleagues to improve their classroom experience. The pūkenga paerua (graduate tutor) is currently engaged in study towards our very own tohu known as Te Kāurutanga (the highest level of qualification at Te Wānanga o Raukawa) and joins our Kaihautū in this pursuit.

Te Whare Kōkiri is of the view that we have an abiding responsibilty of care for our programmes, our students and our Wānanga. We strive to nurture a culture of collective responsibility for every student and every resource and we seek every opportunity to present our Wānanga in the best light. Every student is mentored by good supportive role models throughout their programme of study. Some respond well to this support and others prefer a more independent study experience.

Regardless, we always ensure that the mentorship is available.

Our tikanga ā whare places great importance on student welfare and we take our role in this regard very seriously. Part of this tikanga includes caring for student records in 2013 we committed to working closely with both Te Rātonga Ākonga (Student Services) and our remote sites to ensure our role as kaitiaki was being expressed through a concerted focus on student welfare. This resulted in a spirit of collective wellbeing in the whare, with our remote site staff and with our students.

We have worked hard to ensure that no individual course that we deliver has fallen under the 45 percent threshold for completion of enrolled students. While there have been challenges in achieving this, they have been good challenges that have required us to be creative and committed.

While we have had another good year, without doubt the highlight has been the graduation of 30 Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori students. This represented 75 percent of the enrolled number and 26 of the 30 students were either marae based or had their deliveries at the Waikato Tainui College of Business and Innovation. This programme was delivered jointly by Pakake Winiata, Rauru Broughton, Awanui Black and Hohaia Collier. There was no greater pleasure as the kaihautū than writing to our students to tell them that they had been successful. Toko Mana, Tupunga Hapū, Kaute, Aotearoatanga and Mātauranga Māori undergraduates all deserved credit for persevering. Their graduation gave great pleasure to the whare and acted as the rango to haul the waka ashore. To see our Tāhuhu Whakahaere, Tāhuhu Aotearoa, and Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori graduates conferred with their degrees was to watch that waka come ashore.

Nā te hāpai o te hoe, ka taea te waka ki uta.

By paddling in unison, the waka has arrived ashore.

Te Whare Kōkiri would also like to acknowledge the following kaiāwhina: Whare Hiku, Hoturoa Kerr, Anaru Kupenga, Stanley Rahui Papa, Turoa Royal.

Hāpai means to lift, uphold or support and akoranga are our academic programmes. Te Whare Hāpai Akoranga is a grouping of areas that work collectively to support our programmes and our students.

Each of the areas in the whare has a specific focus.

Te Tomonga is the door or entranceway to our Wānanga, it is where people making enquiries are greeted and guided through the enrolment process. Closely connected is Ratonga Ākonga, our student services area where the enrolments are processed. This area also maintains our student management system, holds the student records and provides services related to enrolments and records. Both areas focus on good systems and processes to enable us to maximise our expression of manaakitanga to our students.

Te Taituarā Ākonga is our student support area. This is our central area that has the single key task of supporting our students to complete their studies each year. This is achieved by way of regular contact with students throughout the year, coordinating the kura tautoko or study support sessions and additional one on one or group support. This complements the work of the academic programmes. Ensuring our students have a positive experience is a priority for the team. It is extremely satisfying to work closely with students and see them achieve their study goals. It is also very pleasing to have contributed to the improved completion rates in 2013.

Te Tumu Akoranga is the mooring post for our academic programmes and as such works closely with the academic board, the pou akoranga and the programmes to facilitate and coordinate development, approval and ongoing arotake (evaluation) of our programmes. Our contribution to enhancing the student learning experience is indirectly as kaitiaki of the Ngā Akoranga (programme prospectus) and developing new offerings, and directly through arotake. Arotake facilitates the sharing of common experiences in order to gain a deeper understanding of the expression of kaupapa. It is an opportunity for us to express rangatiratanga ensuring that ākonga voices are heard, kotahitanga engaging ākonga in our arotake activities and manaakitanga that ākonga outcomes are positive.

In 2013 a number of ākonga contributed to Te Tumu Akoranga activities by participating in surveys for new programme offerings. A group was interviewed by New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) evaluation panel for the new Toiora Whānau four year degree programme while other groups were interviewed at monitors’ visits and various individuals have participated as members of programme review panels.

These included workload reductions, the introduction of varied approaches to assessing ākonga achievement and three programmes were inspired to refine key vertical learning strands in their degrees in line with ākonga, hāpori (community) and industry needs.

Programme Development Work progressed on the proposals for pāho or broadcasting (degree), Rongoā (degree) and whakaakoranga (postgraduate diploma). The four year toiora whānau proposal was completed.

New Programme approvals The new four year Poutuarongo Toiora Whānau was approved by the Social Work Registration Board (SWRB) in December 2013 and by NZQA early in 2014. The programme was approved for delivery at Ōtaki, Whakatū Marae, Te Pito o Ngāi Tawake, Te Mauri o Ngāpuhi, Te Kei o te Waka o Te Puaha.

SWRB also approved the re-registration of the three year degree at the venues listed above.

We would like to celebrate all those who achieved their aspirations or reached milestones in 2013, and thank the kaiāwhina, staff and students who have contributed directly or indirectly to our progress in the expression of kaupapa in 2013.

The whanaungatanga is consolidated by the end of noho one and contacts are maintained by students via the internet. Ongoing support is clearly evident with students and staff supporting each other when there are bereavements amongst us.

The structure of the undergraduate programmes and the range of assessment strategies continue to be reviewed. Reduction and synergising of some programme content and the addition of maths and language resources ensure content is kept up to date with current teaching and learning trends.

E tangi tonu ana te ngākau ki a rātou kua whetūrangitia, e Hilda Te Wiata, Aunty Shirley Edwin, Rangi Gillet, moe mai rā.

2013 brought many challenges for Te Whare Mātauranga and from these the expressions of manaakitanga, aroha, whanaungatanga and whakapapa were evident.

The primary teaching and early childhood education programmes draw a wide range of students who have the desire to work with our tamariki and our mokopuna and guide them to their full educational potential whilst seeing the world through Māori eyes. Kaiāwhina in kura, young mothers, school leavers and men and women who are seeking a career change all explore the opportunities that we can provide at Te Wānanga o Raukawa. Generous Teach NZ scholarships are available to those who meet the criteria.

57

Discussions with Te Roopu Whakaruruhau, a support group of experienced teachers in the early childhood sector and the Kōhungahunga (early childhood) support group, have endorsed the idea of delivering the programme bilingually from 2014 onwards. There has also been a restructuring of the timing of programme deliveries with the aim of increasing enrolments. Discussion with the Kohanga Reo National Trust has been sought to gauge support for kohanga reo staff wishing to complete our qualification.

Improved internet connectivity at our Gisborne site has enabled better communication between students and staff. Students receive pre-and-post-noho information and activities via our online teaching/learning platform Murau (Moodle). Staff training is ongoing. Following a series of earthquakes emergency safety plans have been discussed with staff and students.

Our master’s programme continues to attract high numbers with twenty seven students in year 1 and ten students in our year 2 programme. 2013 was the first time year 2 students were able to apply for study awards. Previously these were available for the year 1 students only. The successful applicants are required to have had at least five years teaching experience and many are senior staff or principals from their respective kura.

The accommodation and meals provided for students during noho is a way in which we are able to express our manaakitanga. In turn, the students’ appreciation is expressed in their written evaluations. Wairuatanga and whanaungatanga is evident amongst the students with numerous opportunities for bonding and the nourishment of wairua. Examples of this include shared karakia, hākinakina (physical activities), tīuru, kiorahi (traditional Māori games), basketball games, kapa haka and the facilities provided at our fully equipped gymnasium, Ngā Purapura.

Academic staff member Awanuiarangi Black has made a valuable contribution to the programmes, students and staff over the past years with his skills, knowledge and commitment to mātauranga Māori. We wish both Awanui and Anihera well in their relocation to Tauranga Moana. Three new staff members have been appointed to Te Whare Whakaakoranga in academic and kaikokiri positions. They bring with them a fresh injection of new ideas, current classroom teaching practices and curriculum knowledge.

Kaiāwhina are acknowledged for their generous contributions throughout the year. Their knowledge and expertise are an invaluable enhancement to our programmes. Kaiāwhinatanga is a distinctive practice here at Te Wānanga o Raukawa which truly showcases the act of reciprocity and the essence of manaakitanga within te ao Māori. We are very grateful to all those who contributed to our programmes this year.

He Iti nā Mōtai is our early childhood centre and continues to provide stimulating and exciting learning experiences for our tamariki. Three staff have completed their first year towards their teacher registrations. The Kaiwhakahaere (manager) is preparing to present at the World Indigenous People’s Conference on Education (WIPCE) to be hosted in Hawaii, May 2014.

Kaiāwhina for 2013 included:

The undergraduate and postgraduate ahunga tikanga programmes offer challenging opportunities to research Māori laws and philosophy with high profile kaiāwhina and tutors who present in various components of this programme. In 2013 this programme was delivered off campus for the first time to a group of year 1 students at Te Pae Tawhiti o Waiariki campus and this identified further interest from iwi and rūnanga of the rohe (region).

Te W ga ran

Te Whare Oranga is committed to the provision of academic programmes that contribute to sustainable outcomes in Māori wellbeing. Teaching is informed by current activity in mātauranga Māori and the exploration of theory and evidenced-based outcomes relevant to the needs of whānau, hapū and iwi. Te Whare Oranga takes a dynamic and progressive approach to programme delivery and enhancement and is moving towards the implementation of new whare initiatives in 2014 and 2015 including: a new Whare Oranga noho format; online deliveries and integration of Iwi and Hapū Studies learning outcomes within Te Whare Oranga studies papers.

Heke Mātauranga Rongoā Planning and development of a new 3-year bachelor-level degree programme for 2015 is well underway. Teaching in 2013 focused on the application of mātauranga Māori to each paper to further contextualise the relevance and applicability of Māori worldviews to the theory, practice and understanding of rongoā. Programme redevelopment is exploring how rongoā might be applied as a means of health prevention to compliment more traditional intervention-based applications of rongoā. This development reflects the changing nature of broader approaches to Māori health across Aotearoa.

Kaitaikitanga Pūtaiao / Te Puna The pūtaiao programme continues to be informed by current and developing issues pertinent to Māori environmental interests. Staff maintain active involvement across a range of Māori environmental networks and initiatives ensuring that students receive current information specific to contemporary and emerging areas of Māori engagement. A proposal for the establishment of a purpose-built fully sustainable teaching and education centre for Te Puna is underway and is a joint venture with the rongoā studies programme, recognising common synergies between both programmes. The strategic plan (He Rautaki Mahere) launched in 2012 continues to provide a central focus for Te Puna goals and aspirational outcomes.

Toiora Whānau Significant work was undertaken throughout 2013 to achieve accreditation for a new 4-year degree programme in toiroa whānau. This is testament to the expertise and commitment of the new Pukenga Matua and Pukenga on board the programme. The new four-year term provides an enhanced and more comprehensive package with greater practicum placement opportunities. Toiora whānau is in high demand both on campus and nationwide across MBS and as expected, will continue to grow as Māori organisations seek higher level academic and professional qualifications for staff members working within fields specific to whānau development.

Poupou Pakari Tinana Demand for the Poupou Pakari Tinana far exceeded earlier estimates and is proving increasingly popular with both individuals and groups seeking to enhance physical wellbeing through kaupapa and tikanga Māori. An internal review has provided a valuable opportunity to further develop the programme in order to meet the growing demand from organisations and individuals from varied backgrounds across Aoteaora.

Year 2 and 3 students represented Kawa Oranga at the Quarter Iron-Māori at Napier in November for the first time, a significant achievement. The national profile of the programme continues to grow particularly amongst Māori health and wellbeing cohorts. Programme development is ongoing to ensure relevant and up to date material and content is provided and continually enhanced. New initiatives are focused on additional delivery streams in 2014 and 2015 with enhanced online content.

TE W WH HARE A MĀ KATU PU TAU RAN GA

2013 witnessed the realisation of elements of the Whakatupu Mātauranga Plan that was developed in 2012 to guide the whakatupu mātauranga activity within Te Wānanga o Raukawa. Te Kāhui Whakatupu Mātauranga is committed to fostering this activity, thereby facilitating the reclamation, maintenance and expansion of the mātauranga continuum.

Te Kāhui Whakatupu Mātauranga

Conferences provide important opportunities for whakatupu mātauranga activity. Te Wānanga o Raukawa hosted five conferences during 2013, including an international conference on indigenous education and the Ako Aotearoa annual conference, Tuia te Ako. The application process for attendance at conferences known as ‘He whakaaro mō te tono āwhina kia haere ki tētehi huihuinga’, was refined this year. The process encourages staff to have a clear kaupapa basis for attending conferences and enables whakatupu mātauranga to be shared in the form of post conference reports and presentations. Over fifty staff were supported to attend two international and seven local and national conferences. These included: the 2013 gathering of the World Indigenous Nations Higher Education Consortium (WINHEC); the annual NZ Fitness Expo; and an IT conference on future learning and the digital student. A number of staff presented at a range of conferences, including the Tuia te Ako conference and the international indigenous research gathering in Hamilton, He Manawa Whenua. We were also fortunate to have a seminar at Te Wānanga o Raukawa conducted by Professor Jo-ann Archibald of the Sto:lo nation who shared her work and writing on the educational experiences of her people.

‘A Kaupapa-Based Approach to Whakatupu Mātauranga Activity at Te Wānanga o Raukawa’, a methodology that attempts to have our whakatupu mātauranga activity at Te Wānanga o Raukawa clearly located in our kaupapa, was given further expression through a number of collaborative and other projects.

63

An external collaborative project which was conducted early in the year for Te Tauihu o Ngā Wānanga involved working with Business and Economic Research Limited to undertake an analysis of the wānanga sector’s contribution to the New Zealand economy. Towards the end of 2013 a joint kaupapa based project was entered into with the New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER).

This two year project is examining how well the tertiary sector is prepared to support whānau Māori language aspirations with a particular focus on how Te Wānanga o Raukawa, through its te reo Māori initiatives, is contributing to the survival of Māori as a people. A range of collaborative activities were undertaken within Te Wānanga o Raukawa during 2013 which will result in some important outputs in 2014. These include: ‘Kaitiakitanga and tikanga – Interviews with Ngāti Raukawa kaumātua’, a joint publication with Te Puna (Whare Oranga); a report involving the Te Kawa o te Ako Committee on their experiences in protecting and maintaining our tikanga based learning environment; a collection of articles by staff and kaiāwhina of Iwi and Hapū Studies and others to form the second volume of the journal ‘Te Pā Harakeke’; and a joint visual audio project with Te Whare Tahā on the creation and artwork of the tupuna whare Toa Rangatira. The WAI 2258 claim concerning Crown policies which are prejudicial to our whakatupu mātauranga activity was advanced further, with a number of papers having been completed, presented and discussed in various forums within the Wānanga.

64

An important aspect of whakatupu mātauranga activity is the publication of staff authored material.

A number of Te Wānanga o Raukawa staff contributed articles, both to internal and external publications. Some examples of contributions by Whakatupu Mātauranga staff to conference proceedings that were published during 2013 include “Changing the Default Setting: Making Trouble to Restore Tikanga”, “It’s all about whānau – Oppression, Sexuality and Mana” and “Building Māori Futures on Kaupapa Tuku Iho”, all of which were presented at the combined Te Wānanga o Raukawa and New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER) conference ‘Kei Tua o te Pae – Changing Worlds Changing Tikanga: Educating History and the Future’ conference, held at the wānanga in 2012. These conference proceedings were co published by our publishing unit, Te Tākupu and NZCER. “Kairangi: Expanding a Māori Conception of Excellence” and “Whakapapa – The Relationship of Tertiary Provision to Whānau, Hapū and Iwi Aspirations”, also contributed by Whakatupu Mātauranga staff, were published in the Tuia te Ako conference proceedings. Three wānanga staff contributed articles to the fifth volume of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa journal Te Ūkaipō, produced by Te Tākupu. The launch of Te Ūkaipō 5 in October saw the continuation of writings by women of The ART Confederation. In March we jointly launched, on one of our marae of The Confederation, a book authored by Rachael Selby and Alex Barnes on the experiences of a hapū in developing their people through a mentoring programme called Te Huarahi o Te Ora.

Kia tangi ai te reo! Kia āhuru ai te ūkaipōtanga! Kia hāpai i te kaitiakitanga! Kia eke ai te pūkengatanga!

Kia rongo ai i te wairuatanga! Kia tātai i te whakapapa! Kia kitea te rangatiratanga! Kia whakakahangia te whanaungatanga! Kia whakapūmautia te kotahitanga! Kia hora te manaakitanga! O Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

TE KĀHUI WHAKATUPU MĀTAURANGA

Negotiations with the Crown occurred based, in part, on a paper from Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga entitled, ‘The Natural Tension’, which addresses the natural tension between the Crown wanting to exert its kāwanatanga and our need to exercise our tino rangatiratanga.

The publication of Te Ūkaipō 5 and Te Huarahi o Te Ora highlights the need to be constantly working on enhancing our relationship and interaction with the hapū and iwi of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira (The ART Confederation). Ngā Purutanga Mauri, who provide advice on and attend the launches of our publications, play the key role in the maintenance of tikanga within Te Wānanga o Raukawa and provide an important link to our hapū and iwi. Staff represent our people on the various rūnanga of The ART Confederation and one chairs our founding ART body, the Raukawa Marae Trustees. Many of our people are actively engaged in the historical claims of Ngāti Toa Rangatira and Ngāti Raukawa, respectively, to the Waitangi Tribunal. Iwi and Hapū Studies, Te Reo Studies and Ahunga Tikanga locate some of their teaching, involving Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga staff, on some of our marae and in and around our tuahu Rangiātea. Ngāti Toa educational preferences were explored in 2013 by a small group of Ngāti Toa Rangatira and Te Wānanga o Raukawa staff, with a plan finalised involving the delivery in 2014 of a combination of our poupou programmes. A Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga staff member was actively involved in the completion of a Ngāti Toa reo strategy (Ngāti Toa Reo Strategy – The revitalisation of te reo o Ngāti Toa Rangatira) and associated wānanga reo.

One of the highlights for Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga was being invited to facilitate the 2013 Hui Whakakaupapa. Part of the hui involved a brief discussion and “drive by visit” of some of our ART marae. However a significant focus was visiting and discussing some of the history of certain sites of significance to The ART Confederation including some of the names on our buildings, namely, Waiorongomai, Ōtaki, Kukutauaki, Waikanae and Whitireia. The hui whakakaupapa had the intention of enabling our staff to experience our kaupapa through exposure to these important places to The Confederation. Our collective hope is that we can continue to take opportunities to give form to our kaupapa in all aspects of our work, including whakatupu mātauranga, perhaps as expressed at the Hui Whakakaupapa:

2013 was a year filled with innovation and industry. Te Kāhui Whakahaere staff came together on three occasions to wānanga their contribution to a successful higher education facility for Māori.

“E kore au e ngaro: he kākano i ruia mai i Rangiātea” I will not be lost; the seed sown from Rangiātea

As a source of motivation, inspiration and innovation the gathering looked to its history, language, symbols and world view for ideas and solutions going forward. From the smallest yet meaningful notions to large and challenging concepts, this group found ways to facilitate the desired outcomes.

These included: Te Reo Demand and elevate the importance of te reo.

• Initiated and coordinated the weekly karakia sessions for staff.

• Included te reo Māori learning in karakia sessions.

• Used te reo in all meetings.

“Hapaitia te ara tika pumau ai te rangatiratanga mo nga uri whakatipu.”

TE KĀHUI WHAKAHAERE – POU WHAKAHAERE

Te rā whakapūmau is the accumulation of all the efforts of staff and students, where we celebrate their achievements with graduations in Ōtaki and across the country. This is a time when we invite the families and friends of graduands to attend the conferring of the respective qualifications. Te Kahui Whakahaere plays a major role in the organisation and smooth running of te rā whakapūmau.

This is a well organised event at which Te Wānanga o Raukawa has had considerable experience over the years and is the Wānanga’s expression of manaakitanga to our students and manuhiri on what is a very significant day in their lives.

8107 meals were served in the dining room on the Ōtaki campus. The dining room, which seats 300 diners at any one time, received a steady flow of students and visiting tutors throughout the year.

In keeping with our commitment to the survival and wellbeing of Māori, our manuhiri, staff and students received well balanced, healthy and nourishing meals.

The Wānanga offered three types of accommodation all of which were clean, warm and inviting: • Domitory style • Kaumātua and those less able or with special needs • Marae style • A siginificant contribution to delivery of our programmes was offered by 27 sites throughout the country. We are grateful to those marae and others who enthusiastically supported these venues. At the Ōtaki campus a high percentage of teaching and learning days were offered throughout the year.

Point of interest during the year: • • • • • •

Te Wānanga o Raukawa’s financial risk rating was low.

Audit NZ noted continued improvement in policy and practice.

Financial management practices were reviewed and resulted in high standards of kaitiakitanga.

The kitchen was upgraded.

The Wānanga will continue to grow investments and their returns.

Winiata and Associates Limited provide contracted services for the preparation of annual accounts, training to existing staff, and checking of monthly audit files, to give confidence to the Audit and Risk Committee of Te Mana Whakahaere.

Our whare is the kanohi kitea (a seen face) and as such we are focused on the expression of manaakitanga in all that we do. Our aim is to ensure that the student experience is a positive one.

Te Whare Manaaki Tangata comprises of five areas: • Te Whare Pukapuka (library). All library services are available to both on and off campus students.

• Te Whare Perehi (reprographic centre) the reprographic centre prints Ngā Ākoranga (individual programme information) and programme readings.

• Kaitiaki (accommodation, security and safety).

• Whakatau Manuhiri (reception).

• Kāuta (kitchen).

Our aim is to provide: • • • • • •

Manaaki to all at Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

An on site and online library service to all students on and off campus.

High quality reprographic services.

A safe environment.

Clean, warm and inviting student accommodation.

Suitable accommodation and catering services for manuhiri and those less able and with special needs.

• Healthy and nutritious food that is appealing and tasty.

The library survey, where students were asked for their opinions on various aspects of the library was reviewed to help gauge areas for improvement. The survey indicated a high satisfaction rating for both staff assistance and services.

A refurbishment took place in the library in 2013. The computer suite is now part of the library and this inclusion satisfies two points raised in the survey feedback: • Increase the number of computers available in the library.

• Larger spaces created to accommodate individual and group study and research.

72

ua Activities in 2013 included: • Our reprographic centre continued to provide copies of programme material for students and staff.

• Kaimahi (reception) are integral to the busy routine of Te Wānanga o Raukawa. This service is in operation from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.

• Kaitiaki (security) are on campus continuously, and primarily ensure the safety of our students and staff while also providing security for our buildings and equipment. They assisted students who arrived in Ōtaki and provided a pickup and drop off service for students who arrived at Ōtaki via public transport to attend noho.

• Accommodation on campus for 140 people was available during each noho. Eight twin rooms are allocated for kaumātua and students with special needs.

• We maintained a small but comfortable two bedroom apartment on campus for visiting kaiāwhina and off campus staff.

The biggest test of manaakitanga is the preparation for te rā whakapūmau and the important role the whole team plays in making it a memorable day. This is both a challenge and a role that Te Whare Manaaki Tangata gladly accepts in its contribution to the survival of Māori as a people.

2013 was a challenging year for Te Whare Manaaki Whenua whose primary role is the maintenance and improvement of the whenua me ngā whare that consist of the Ōtaki campus facilities. The purpose of the role is to ensure that campus facilities are able to deliver the programs offered and to enhance the learning environment for those students who have selected to study at Te Wānanga o Raukawa. Te Whare Manaaki Whenua also has a secondary role which focuses on the future planning of facilities for Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

• Early in the year a new facility was constructed to accommodate our local Reo FM radio station inclusive of a sound recording studio within an existing building on the campus.

• June saw the completion of two existing refurbished areas that were designated as student common areas.

• A new contractual arrangement was established with an energy provider that has reduced the campus daily usage rate. This arrangement equated to a reduction of $42,000.00 over a period of twenty two months.

• The campus experienced an earthquake of magnitude 6.2 on the Richter scale. Te Whare Manaaki Whenua were appreciative of the support received from campus colleagues. A commissioned earthquake engineer submitted a favourable review of an inspection of the two level campus buildings. We were also able to review and confirm that the campus infrastructure was functioning as designed.

• During 2013 the campus was able to maintain expression of manaakitanga by hosting the Breast Cancer Unit which provided free screening for women of Ōtaki and also a Dental Unit which provides a free service for tamariki of Ōtaki.

• Late in the year, plans were developed to refurbish the campus library over the Christmas break ready for the commencement of the 2014 tertiary year. During the week following graduation the library was temporarily relocated to allow the work to commence.

Te W In a time when hunger for innovation is everywhere, we believe our primary responsibility is to provide the infrastructure to prepare our Wānanga community to rise with the challenges of a dynamic digital world. The technical expectations and abilities of younger learners compel us to continually develop new skills and increase our technical aptitude.

Te Whare Tahā identified five priority outcomes for 2012/13: • To profile Te Wānanga o Raukawa as an institute committed to advancing Māori progress in education, te reo and āhuatanga Māori.

• To support the increase of online learning content available to students.

• To give attention to publications and marketing materials to ensure relevance, consistency and user friendliness.

• To conduct a review of services including networks, servers, desktop applications, support systems and the Poupou Mātauranga Rorohiko (PpMR) Certificate in Computer Training programme.

• To conduct a whare review to position our whare as innovators in producing creative solutions to even the most complex of challenges.

The marketing and promotion of Te Wānanga o Raukawa was an area that our whare worked hard on. Engaging in promotional opportunities that ensured the audience reflected our target market informed our decision making in this area. Our ‘Māori Television Strategy’ was the main brand awareness promotional tool employed for 2012 through to 2013. This involved sponsorship by the Wānanga of the five hour language learning block and general advertising commitments.

The exposure this air time provided supported our key goal to maximise the contribution to the mātauranga continuum, for the survival of Māori as a people.

A service review designed to identify potential service delivery improvements, including efficiency and effectiveness was commenced. Efforts to seek ways to deliver a more seamless user experience for staff and students was the theme of a presentation to Ngā Kaihautū where we showcased and promoted an investment in a student portal. The presentation was received favorably.

Preparing students for Te Wānanga o Raukawa studies is one of the key foci of the Poupou Mātauranga Rorohiko (PpMR) programme. Course content, the noho structure and delivery options were all reviewed. It became clear that the computer competency at entry for students in 2013 was far higher than those who studied with us in the early 2000. The Academic Board agreed to remove the co requisite criteria so that students are no longer required to complete the PpMR course in order to graduate. This is to take effect in 2014. A review of the PpMR programme is currently underway to ensure we are meeting the needs of our students in the best way possible.

Te Whare Tahā is conscious that new technologies require a higher level of education and training and as a result has sought opportunities for staff development. Staff have engaged in online learning, web design and software and systems training to support Te Kāhui Akoranga (academic), Te Kāhui Whakatupu Mātauranga (creative activity) and Te Kāhui Whakahaere (administration) of Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

Te Whare Tahā would like to acknowledge Richard Pease who was a kaiāwhina for the Te Wānanga o Raukawa brand audit in 2013.

A review of Te Wānanga o Raukawa wide publication and marketing materials which included the website resulted in a decision to retain our current brand messages. Work was conducted on the language and the clarity of information presented within all materials.

We have made progress towards better understanding and producing online courses that are andragogically driven with the technology being the enabler of the learning. Te Whare Tahā is constantly working to source, recommend and implement relevant tools to support teaching and learning outcomes for blended courses.

A training support package is currently in development for all academic and support staff to raise awareness of the many support tools available for teaching and administration purposes. The package also aims to upskill the computer and software knowledge of relevant staff members.

The philosophy of teaching for marae based studies (MBS) has at its heart a model where students and teachers alike are taught at home, by home, and for home. This fulfills a model for the economic health and wealth of Māori with the achievement of formal qualifications a probability for those who engage.

Graduates of our programmes are able to contribute directly and immediately to capacity building for hapū and iwi by completing valuable and relevant research whilst studying with Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

The success of the marae based model for learning has proven itself over many years as a most suitable vehicle for those who wish to learn at home, by home and for home. As the economy improves and the cost of travel rises, having less distance to travel for learning makes economic sense. In 2013 46 percent of all learning provided by Te Wānanga o Raukawa was marae based.

To support student choice where a decision can be made about what programmes would be most suitable and achievable, some undergraduate programmes developed support certificates for students to decide if a particular programme was achievable. Approximately 300 students took this opportunity.

• Te Pito o Ngāi Tawake • Te Ururangi o Te Mātauranga • Waikato – Tainui College for Research and Development

The pursuit of new solutions and new tools to facilitate blended options to our off campus sites continue. Te Wānanga o Raukawa and our MBS sites were able to interact in the delivery of papers and conduct meetings utilising new online technology. Development of online teaching and training options for marae based sites continues and further opportunities will be pursued in 2014.

Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) are a way of reaching an understanding with each of our sites about the way Te Wānanga o Raukawa and the marae will enhance each others mana. This partnership includes the provision of teaching, learning, and resources by Te Wānanga o Raukawa with students and facilities provided by the marae. The kōmiti mātauranga who discuss these arrangements and provide oversight at each venue are a valuable group of people entrusted with the role of increasing knowledge, experience, qualifications and skills for those they serve.

The move to deliver the Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori off campus was a successful venture. A total of twenty-five marae based students graduated in Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori in December from the following sites.

In 2013 a variety of poupou (certificate) programmes were offered. The Matariki poupou offering was so appealing that the planned 21 percent provision was exceeded. A total of 31 percent of provision was consumed by these courses.

New relationships secured in 2013 included: • Te Ara Ahurewa (Waitara) - engaged in a number of programmes including Tāhuhu Mātauranga Māori.

• Whakatū Marae (Nelson) - engaged in a number of programmes including Poupou Karanga.

Our Students

Te Reo Māori is one of the compulsory course components for students completing qualifications with Te Wānanga o Raukawa. From certificate level 5 through to level 9 students are engaged in language studies.

At enrolment 21.4 percent of the students were engaged in other study, 49 percent were employed.

There has been a marked reduction of students who are unemployed at enrolment. In 2010 32.5 percent of our students were unemployed and in 2013 17.5 percent said they were unemployed prior to study. This is a 15 percent reduction over 4 years and indicates to us that our educational purpose is successful, that the economy is improving, that there are more employment opportunities and is indicated by a corresponding rise in students enrolled in part time study.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa specialises in delivering hui rumaki reo (six day-long immersion programmes) aimed at developing fluency and accuracy in te reo Māori. Initially the programme was an experiment, a search for the most effective ways of reviving, learning and teaching te reo Māori. Today, forty two immersion courses are run annually by Te Wānanga o Raukawa for undergraduate reo students.

21 Tāhuhu (Masters) qualifications were completed by way of thesis in te reo Māori. Eight were staff.

2,420 students and their whānau increased their knowledge and fluency in te reo Māori.

612.0 Equivalent Full Time Students (EFTS) were located at marae based studies (Mai i te Ūkaipō).

In 2013, 612 funded equivalent full time students (EFTS) were located at marae based studies (Mai i te Ūkaipō) venues contributing to the achievement of our goal that Māori are distinctive and identifiable as Māori in the future, our future, ‘Kia Māori a tātou mokopuna’. The remaining 715 EFTs were students based in Ōtaki who also spend one third of their time on Iwi and Hapū based studies at which time they will engage in research that leads them on a journey of discovery about who they are, what that means, and where they are from.

The Mai i te Ūkaipō strategy assures learners of improved language skills, the knowledge of who they are, where they come from, and the development of research skills necessary to accurately source that knowledge. The theory is that to teach students at home, about home and by home assures learners of their own dialect, protocols, practices, and knowledge. The idea is to build the base in their own community to enable a group to nurture the full understanding of who they are and what it is to be Māori. This type of mātauranga provides stability at the marae and within the hapū to assure Māori of a future with Māori who know who they are and where they are from.

94 percent of students identified as Māori. 75 percent of the programmes delivered were levels five to level nine, that is undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. Thirty nine students graduated with a Tāhuhu (Master) degree. The Wānanga Educational Performance Indicators (EPI’s) continue to improve.

1,091 students graduated this year.

Our educational performance continues to improve, staff study had good results and Te Wānanga o Raukawa is financially sound. 2013 was a challenging year and more challenges remain.

For the 31 years that we have been providing and conferring tertiary qualifications we have taken students on a journey of discovery, enlightenment and development. For some it will take longer than the three years that a degree can be completed in, and for others the completion of a diploma will be enough to satisfy their need or to kick start further study.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa as an expression to the vision for its founding iwi has established further teaching and residential facilities on the lands generously provided by the OPTB. Te Wānanga o Raukawa is confident that the whakapapa and whanaungatanga of the two organisations is such that there is no risk to one or the other choosing to withdraw from the relationship. The lease of lands and buildings is non-cancellable and is viewed to be a relationship in perpetuity. In latter times the requirement for Crown entities like TWoR is such that leases are required to give certainty to the arrangements. Te Wānanga o Raukawa intends to discuss a longer term lease as a truer reflection for both parties of the commitment to the land and buildings.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa holds a lease over land and certain buildings, on that land, owned by the Ōtaki and Porirua Trust Board. The total cost in 2013 was $94,277, (2012: $94,277). The lease of land and buildings is renewable every 5 years. The 2012 lease commitments are based on Ōtaki and Porirua Trust Board only, whereas 2013 is all operating leases.

Refer to note 11 for finance lease commitment disclosures.

Changes in Accounting Policy There have been no changes in accounting policies during the financial year.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa has adopted the following revisions to account standards during the financial year, which have had only a presentational or disclosure effect: FRS-44 New Zealand Additional Disclosures and Amendments to NZ IFRS to harmonise  with IFRS and Australian Accounting Standards (Harmonisation Amendments) – The purpose of the new standard and amendments is to harmonise Australian and New Zealand accounting standards with source IFRS and eliminate many of the differences between the accounting standards in each jurisdiction. The main effect of the amendments on Te Wānanga o Raukawa is that donations are no longer required to be separately disclosed.

Standards, amendments, and interpretations issued that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted The Minister of Commerce has approved a new Accounting Standards Framework (incorporating a Tier Strategy) developed by the External Reporting Board (XRB). Under this Accounting Standards Framework, Te Wānanga o Raukawa is classified as a Tier 1 reporting entity and it will be required to apply full public sector Public Benefit Entity Accounting Standards (PAS). These standards are being developed by the XRB and are mainly based on current International Public Sector Accounting Standards. The effective date for the new standards for public sector entities is expected to be for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014. This means Te Wānanga o Raukawa expects to transition to the new standards in preparing its 31 December 2015 financial statements. As the PAS are still under development, Te Wānanga o Raukawa is unable to assess the implications of the new Accounting Standards Framework at this time.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa has Contingent Liabilities and assets of $NIL (2012: $NIL).

Due to the change in the Accounting Standards Framework for public benefit entities, it is expected that all new NZ IFRS and amendments to existing NZ IFRS will not be applicable to public benefit entities. Therefore, the XRB has effectively frozen the financial reporting requirements for public benefit entities up until the new Accounting Standard Framework is effective. Accordingly, no disclosure has been made about new or amended NZ IFRS that exclude public benefit entities from their scope.

Statement of Commitments for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 Non- Cancellable Operating Lease Commitments Whanaungatanga Te Wānanga o Raukawa and the Ōtaki and Porirua Trusts Board (OPTB) share a vision to provide education for its people.

On the current site are; the OPTB offices, Tūroa Kohanga Reo and the Te Wānanga o Raukawa Campus.

Basis of Consolidation The group financial statements are prepared by adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses, and cash flows on a line-by-line basis. All significant intragroup balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Subsidiaries Te Wānanga o Raukawa Charitable Trust was established under the terms of the deed of settlement with the Ministry of Education. The Trustees of Te Wānanga o Raukawa Charitable Trust resolved on 10th December 2013 to dissolve the trust and the funds held in trust by Hayman Lawyers to be transferred by koha to Te Wānanga o Raukawa.

The trust had assets of $236,476 (2012 $229,122) and liabilities of $236,476 (2012 $1,897) . On this basis consolidated financial statements for the group have not been prepared, as the parent and group amounts are not materially different.

Financial assets are classified into the following categories for the purposes of measurement: • fair value through surplus or deficit; • loans and receivables; and • fair value through other comprehensive income.

Classification of the financial asset depends on the purpose for which the instruments were acquired.

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method Borrowing costs Te Wānanga o Raukawa has elected to defer the adoption of the revised NZ IAS 23 Borrowing Costs (Revised 2007) in accordance with the transitional provisions of NZ IAS 23 that are applicable to public benefit entities. Consequently, all borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Leases Finance leases A finance lease is a lease that transfers to Te Wānanga o Raukawa substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an item, whether or not title is eventually transferred. At the commencement of the lease term, finance leases are recognised as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position at the lower of the fair value of the leased item or the present value of the minimum lease payments. The finance charge is charged to the surplus or deficit over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The amount recognised as an asset is depreciated over its useful life. If there is no certainty as to whether Te Wānanga-o-Raukawa will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term, the asset is fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life.

Operating leases An operating lease is a lease that does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset. Lease payments under an operating lease are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposit held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.

Debtors and other receivables Debtors and other receivables are initially measured at their face value and subsequently measured at face value less any provision for impairment.

Derivative financial instruments Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposure to interest rate risk arising from financing activities. In accordance with its investment policy, Te Wānanga o Raukawa does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs unless they are carried at fair value though the surplus or deficit in which case the transaction costs are recognised in the surplus or deficit.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa’s main financial assets are loans and receivables.

Loans and receivables (including cash and cash equivalents and debtors and other receivables) Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance date, which are included in non-current assets.

Student Tuition Fees Revenue from student tuition fees is recognised over the period in which the course is taught by reference to the stage of completion of the course as at the balance date. Stage of completion is measured by reference to the number of noho completed as a percentage of total noho for each course.

After initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at face value less any provision for impairment. Gains and losses when the asset is impaired or derecognised are recognised in the surplus or deficit.

Impairment of financial assets At each balance date, Te Wānanga-o-Raukawa assesses whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. Any impairment losses are recognised in the surplus or deficit.

Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment consist of the following asset classes: land and site development, buildings, equipment, library books, motor vehicles and taonga. Land is measured at cost. Te Wānanga o Raukawa owns the land where He Iti na Motai, Te Puna and Design and Art are located. The balance of the land occupied by Te Wānanga o Raukawa is leased from the Ōtaki and Porirua Trust Board. Buildings, equipment, and motor vehicles are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Library collections are recorded at depreciated replacement cost in accordance with the method of library collection valuation developed by the New Zealand Library Association. The valuation was completed in December 1995. Subsequent additions are recorded at cost. Taonga are measured at cost.

Additions The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that future economic benefits or service potential associated with the item will flow to Te Wānanga o Raukawa and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Work in progress is recognised at cost less impairment and is not depreciated.

Disposals Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the disposal proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset. Gains and losses on disposals are reported net in the surplus or deficit.

We have reviewed and reassessed Buildings and Computer Equipment and have extended their useful life.

Creditors and other payables Creditors and other payables are recorded at their face value.

Employee Entitlements Short-term employee entitlements Employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service are measured at nominal values based on accrued entitlements at current rates of pay.

These include salaries and wages accrued up to balance date, and annual leave earned but not yet taken at balance date. An expense is recognised for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation. A liability for sick leave is recognised to the extent that absences in the coming year are expected to be greater than the sick leave entitlements earned in the coming year. The amount is calculated based on the unused sick leave entitlement that can be carried forward at balance date, to the extent it will be used by staff to cover those future absences.

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis on all property, plant and equipment other than land and taonga at rates that will write off the cost (or valuation) of the assets to their estimated residual values over their useful lives.

The depreciation rates of major classes of assets have been estimated as follows:

Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, or not yet available for use, are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that have a finite useful life are reviewed for indicators of impairment at each balance date. When there is an indicator of impairment the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use.

Lease assets – use the depreciation rate pertaining to the respective asset class.

Intangible Assets Software acquisition and development Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. Costs that are directly associated with the development of software for internal use

by Te Wānanga o Raukawa are recognised as an intangible asset. Direct costs include the software development, employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads. Staff training costs are recognised as an expense when incurred. Costs associated with maintaining computer software are recognised as an expense when incurred.

Costs associated with the development and maintenance of the Te Wānanga o Raukawa website are recognised as an expense when incurred.

Course development costs Costs that are directly associated with the development of new educational courses are recognised as an intangible asset to the extent that such costs are expected to be recovered. The development costs primarily consist of employee costs.

Intellectual Property Development Research and other development costs are expensed as incurred in the surplus or deficit.

127

Superannuation schemes Defined Contribution Schemes Obligations for contributions to KiwiSaver, the Government Superannuation Fund, are recognised as an expense in the surplus or deficit as incurred.

Provisions A provision is recognised for future expenditure of uncertain amount or timing when there is a present obligation (either legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that expenditures will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Equity Equity is measured as the difference between total assets and total liabilities. Equity is disaggregated and classified into a number of components. The components of equity are general equity and the endowment reserve. The endowment reserve was established for the recognition of surpluses achieved each year as a result of the efforts performed by kaiāwhina.

Goods and Services Tax

Amortisation The carrying value of an intangible asset with a finite life is amortised on a straight-line basis over its useful life.

Amortisation begins when the asset is available for use and ceases at the date that the asset is derecognised.

The amortisation charge for each period is recognised in the surplus or deficit. The useful lives and associated amortisation rates of major classes of intangible assets have been estimated as follows:

All items in the financial statements are stated exclusive of GST, except for debtors and other receivables and creditors and other payables, which are presented on a GST inclusive basis. Where GST is not recoverable as input tax then it is recognised as part of the related asset or expense. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. The net GST paid to, or received from the IRD, including the GST relating to investing and financing activities, is classified as a net operating cash flow in the statement of cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed exclusive of GST.

Acquired computer software 14% Developed computer software 14% Intangible assets i.e. software has been reviewed and the life of the intangible asset has been extended to 7 years.

Income Tax Te Wānanga o Raukawa is exempt from income tax. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income tax.

Cost Allocation The cost of service for each significant activity of Te Wānanga o Raukawa and group has been derived using the cost allocation system outlined below. Direct costs are those costs directly attributable to a significant activity. Indirect costs are those costs that cannot be identified in an economically feasible manner with a specific significant activity.

Direct costs are charged directly to significant activities. Indirect costs are charged to significant activities using appropriate cost drivers such as actual usage, student numbers, staff numbers, and floor area.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions In preparing these financial statements Te Wānanga o Raukawa has made estimates and assumptions concerning the future. These estimates and assumptions may differ from the subsequent actual results. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below: Property, plant and equipment useful lives and residual value These assets are valued at original cost price less straight line depreciation based on their respective useful life.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa does not revalue property, plant and equipment and all assets are held at book value. An incorrect estimate of useful life or residual value will impact the depreciation expense recognised in the statement of financial performance, and carrying amount of the asset in the statement of financial position. Te Wānanga o Raukawa minimises the risk of the estimation uncertainty by: ● physical inspection of assets: ● regular maintenance: and ● asset replacement programs.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa has not made any changes to past assumptions concerning useful lives and residual values.

The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are disclosed in note 12.

Critical judgements in applying Te Wānanga o Raukawa accounting policies.

Management has exercised the following judgements in applying the Te Wānanga o Raukawa accounting policies for the period ended 31 December 2013: Lease classification Determining whether a lease agreement is finance or an operating lease requires judgement as to whether the agreement transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to Te Wānanga o Raukawa. Judgement is required on various aspects that include, but are not limited to, the fair value of the leased asset, the economic life of the leased asset, whether or not to include renewal options in the lease term and determining an appropriate discount rate to calculate the present value of the minimum lease payments. Classification as a finance lease means the asset is recognised in the statement of financial position as a fixed asset according to the type of asset, whereas for an operating lease no such asset is recognised.

Te Wānanga o Raukawa has exercised its judgement on the appropriate classification of equipment leases and, has determined the photocopier lease arrangements are finance leases.

Distinction between revenue and capital contributions Most Crown funding received is operational in nature and is provided by the Crown under the authority of an expense appropriation and is recognised as revenue. Where funding is received from the Crown under the authority of a capital appropriation, Te Wānanga o Raukawa accounts for the funding as a capital contribution directly in equity.

Currency Risk and Interest Rate Risk There is no currency risk. Cash investments are held until maturity and all are in New Zealand Dollars, therefore no allowance has been made for any potential loss, and due to the nature and general short-term maturity of these investments no allowance for interest rate risk is considered necessary.

Present value of minimum lease payments payable

Sensitivity analysis Interest rate sensitivity is based on a reasonable possible movement in interest rates, with all other variables held constant.

Independent Auditor’s Report To the readers of Te Wānanga o Raukawa and group’s financial statements and non‑financial performance information for the year ended 31 December 2013 The Auditor‑General is the auditor of Te Wānanga o Raukawa (the Wānanga) and group.

The Auditor‑General has appointed me, Clint Ramoo, using the staff and resources of Audit New Zealand, to carry out the audit of the financial statements and non‑financial performance information of the Wānanga and group on her behalf.

We have audited: •

the financial statements of the Wānanga and group on pages 113 to 137, that comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2013, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year ended on that date and the notes to the financial statements that include accounting policies and other explanatory information; and

•

the non‑financial performance information of the Wānanga and group on pages 92 to 110 that comprises the Kaupapa, Tikanga and performance statement, and which includes outcomes.

Basis of opinion We carried out our audit in accordance with the Auditor‑General’s Auditing Standards, which incorporate the International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and carry out our audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and non‑financial performance information are free from material misstatement.

Material misstatements are differences or omissions of amounts and disclosures that, in our judgement, are likely to influence readers’ overall understanding of the financial statements and non‑financial performance information. If we had found material misstatements that were not corrected, we would have referred to them in our opinion.

An audit involves carrying out procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and non‑financial performance information. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including our assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and non‑financial performance information, whether due to fraud or error.

In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Wānanga and group’s preparation of the financial statements and non‑financial performance information that fairly reflect the matters to which they relate. We consider internal control in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Wānanga and group’s internal control.

An audit also involves evaluating: •

the appropriateness of accounting policies used and whether they have been consistently applied;

•

the reasonableness of the significant accounting estimates and judgements made by Te Mana Whakahaere;

•

the adequacy of all disclosures in the financial statements and non‑financial performance information; and

•

the overall presentation of the financial statements and non‑financial performance information.

Opinion In our opinion: •

•

the financial statements of the Wānanga and group on pages 113 to 137: 

comply with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand; and



fairly reflect the Wānanga and group’s: •

financial position as at 31 December 2013; and

•

financial performance and cash flows for the year ended on that date;

the non‑financial performance information of the Wānanga and group on pages 92 to 110 fairly reflects the Wānanga and group’s service performance achievements measured against the performance targets adopted in the investment plan for the year ended 31 December 2013.
