Guided by our learning specialists, students will:

  • Connect learners with taonga, collections, and exhibitions, helping ākonga understand who we are (past, present, and future).

  • Students use hands-on/low-fi, and digital tools in Hīnātore I Learning Lab, to creatively explore their own cultural identities and the diverse connections we all share.

He aha te mea nui o te ao?
He tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata.

What is the most important thing in the work?
It is people, it is people, it is people.
