Tautoko mā ngā ākonga Māori

We value the contribution ākonga Māori bring to WelTec and Whitireia. To assist you to complete your course of study successfully we have the Tamaiti Whangai and Te Ati Awa team at WelTec, supporting the WelTec ākonga regardless of their campus of study, Te Wananga Maori and Ngāti Toa Rangatira at Whitireia supporting Whitireia ākonga regardless of their campus study. 

We have dedicated spaces (location below) for ākonga Māori wanting friendly and welcoming places to study, socialise, to get advice and support, advocacy needs and Mental Health services.
