Ending Streaming in Aotearoa

RSS icon

At the most recent PPTA Te Wehengurau Annual Conference, the paper Ending Streaming in Aotearoa was passed with a near unanimous vote. While there are clearly some members who do believe that streaming has a place in our education system, there was almost no dissent in the room; some thought that 2030 was too long to wait, others thought it should have been more specific in terms of defining streaming, while others realised that the “writing is on the wall” and it’s better to be at the table than not.

We are very pleased that the paper Ending Streaming in Aotearoa was passed at Annual Conference.  There was almost no dissent in the room – some thought that 2030 was too long to wait, others thought it should have been more specific in terms of defining streaming, while others realised that the writing is on the wall and it’s better to be at the table than not.

Kawa:

Te Ati Awa - Mana Whenua

 

Karanga:

Mana Whenua (Host)                                                                                Manuhiri (Visitors)

 

Haka Pōwhiri: (Aue nowai te manuhiri?/Toia mai!/Ka mate! Ūtaina!)

 

Harirū:

Manuhiri to file in – men first; and those who speak/support the ‘Paepae” will sit on the front seats. The wāhine tautoko (women to support the speakers) sit on the seats behind the men. (Be mindful that there are only a limited number of seats set out for the ‘Paepae’.) The rest follow in and go to the seats arranged for the manuhiri (visitors).

 

Karanga whakatau. (Last call indicates that all the guests have been called in).

 

Pāeke (Speaking procedure)

Harirū first. Host speakers will give all their kōrero/waiata first then pass the ‘rākau korero’ to the manuhiri

 

Whaikōrero:

Host - Waiata

Visitors - Waiata

 

Special Note: Change in the kawa:

Special consideration has been granted to Te Wehengarua (PPTA) by the Mana Whenua to accept those on the paepae to ‘harirū’ and the others may go to stand at their seats. This is to expedite proceedings because of time and the vast number of people, also because of the ‘setting’ for the powhiri.

However, this does not exclude anyone who wish to go through the harirū process; they are most welcome to do so.

 

He Mihi:

Nga mihi mahana (warm sincere thanks) to the Kaumatua Sam Jackson for his advice his support and his aroha.
