E ngā mana, e ngā reo, e te iti, e te rahi, e ngā mātāwaka o ngā tōpito o te ao. Ngā mahuetanga iho e kawe nei i ngā moemoeā o rātou mā, tēnā koutou katoa. Piki mai rā, kake mai rā, nau mai, haere mai ki tēnei o ngā wānanga. Whakatau mai i raro i te korowai āhuru o Te Wānanga Aronui o Tāmaki Makau Rau.
Pou Māori – Māori Centre is an iwi Māori-focused support service. We partner with ākonga Māori to provide support that embodies manaakitanga, whanaungatanga and kotahitanga. We offer a wide range of services and kaupapa designed to awhi and tautoko personal, cultural and academic success of ākonga Māori. Our Pou Āwhina are not only kind and approachable but are trained, culturally competent and qualified kaimahi who support or connect ākonga with the people or services they need to succeed in their studies and to make the most of their time at AUT.
We are here to tautoko – from before you arrive at AUT through to graduation and beyond. Contact us before you start your studies or while you're at AUT. Nau mai, haere mai.
