🩺 Calling all Nēhi Māori! 🩺

Kia ora e te whānau — we’re inviting all our Māori nurses, nursing students, and registered nurses to join us for a short whakawhanaungatanga hui.

📅 Wednesday 12 November 2025
🕔 5.00pm – 5.45pm
📍 Te Atawhai o Te Ao

We’ll spend about 20 minutes talking about the intention and direction of this rōpū, then have a kai together. We’ll aim to wrap up around 5.30-5.45pm, so you can get back to your whānau and evening routine.

What we’ll cover:
▪Career and study pathways: for nurses planning to begin or continue postgraduate study in 2026, especially those based within the Te Ranga Tupua region.
▪Regular support hui: to stay connected as kaimahi Māori in health, sharing updates, ideas, and ways we can strengthen our models of care and mahi on the ground.

This hui is a safe, supportive space for all nēhi, whether you’re in training, newly graduated, or long-time registered, to come together and kōrero openly.

Nau mai, haere mai, bring your ideas, your experience, and your whole self. We’d love to see you there.
