Step into a supportive, practical learning space where you can grow the confidence and capability to stand in your roles on the marae with mana.

Led by Tā Tīmoti Kāretu, alongside Dr Jeremy Tātere MacLeod, Te Rina MacLeod, and Hinewai Anahera-Linoyce Netana-Williams, this wānanga offers a rich, grounded learning experience through:


Marae-based learning – learning in the spaces where these practices belong
Practical oratory – hands-on whaikōrero and karanga
Tailored sessions – suitable for both beginners and fluent speakers
Guidance from experts – with space for more personal support
Cultural depth – strengthening your understanding of kawa, tikanga, and te ao Māori

This wānanga is open to everyone. It will be delivered predominantly in te reo Māori at Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Tuia Te Matangi, with regular breakout sessions where English is welcome.
