Ngāi Tahu Education
"Mō tātou, ā, mō kā uri ā muri ake nei – for us and our children after us."
Ngāi Tahu education is part of the Toitū te Iwi group that is focused on whānau and social development and empowerment. In education, we support rūnanga and individual whānau to achieve their aspirations by assisting:
- individuals to access educational tuition, scholarships and grants;
- and rūnanga to develop strategic educational relationships using our Memoranda of Understanding with the Ministry of Education and tertiary education providers in Te Waipounamu.
Ngāi Tahu education is also charged with supporting our Ngāi Tahu reo and culture, specifically through the Kotahi Mano Kāika strategy and Culture and Identity initiatives.
