🎉 Celebrating the end of an incredible journey with our Niu Wave programme! 🎉
We’ve delivered 42 workshops to TOLOA scholarship recipients across Aotearoa, including workshops in Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington, Palmerston North, and to our online village who represent all other areas of the country! 🙌🌏
Our students have completed the programme, learning skills to improve their mental health, maintain healthy relationships, enhance their self-worth, further explore their spirituality and importantly, uphold and strengthen their leadership identity.
A warm thank you to @ministryforpacificpeoples_ for the opportunity. Thank you to everyone who has participated, shared and supported our students through this kaupapa.
Together, we’ve created connections, shared knowledge, and strengthened our communities. 💙✨

We had a great turnout for our very first Niu Wave tertiary workshop tonight.
The Talanoa was powerful and we were encouraged by all the different students that are going to represent our Pasifika communities in STEAM careers in the near future. Our future is in beautiful hands with Pasifika representation on the rise. Malo
Niu Wave is funded by the Ministry for Pacific Peoples as part of the Toloa scholarships program
