Masters Study

Meet Hinerangi Busby who shares her journey with Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi.

I am a graduate of the marae-centred programme, Te Pouhono, transforming Māori communities, promoting mātauranga-a-hapū, a-iwi. My participation took me to the Bachelor of Mātauranga Māori, and then postgraduate study.

Awanuiārangi centres you. This is the nurturing space of Māori researchers, with the support of academic and professional staff; this all transpires from an authentic indigenous and traditional Māori environment.

My studies have empowered me to play a more pro-active role in whānau and hapū affairs. Instead of being angry at a past that we cannot change, let’s become part of the solution for positive change.

We are giving away a wooden cupboard which we are not using. The dimensions are 1.8m (H), 60cm (W) and 31 cm (depth).

You must be able to take it out of our greenhouse and transport it home. It is heavy and this is a job for two strong people.

I will give it to the first person who responds and makes a time to collect it, but if there is more than one person that is interested I will form a waiting list incase that falls though. Also advertised in a FB group.

Location: Papatoetoe (Manukau side).

FPL is situated on a lifestyle block of 5 stunning hectares including lush paddocks, large gardens and mature trees - located about 7.5 km from Clevedon and just under 40 km from Auckland airport.

Anton has an abundance of experience with animals, serving 12 years as a dog handler in the South African Police Service, shortly after arriving in NZ he volunteered his services at the SPCA in Mangere. He also holds several degrees in business and management. Therefore, it is no surprise that managing FPL is based on modern and sustainable practises. Hence the slogan "We do not follow we lead" holds true for FPL.

We're the most affordable and serene Pet Stay in Auckland, offering a number of affordable solutions, whether you are looking at a day stay or for long term boarding when you are away.

We still have spaces available for October and December school holidays, so to avoid disappointment, we wish to remind all existing and new customers that they need to contact us as soon as possible to make a booking for their pet/s for these busy periods. Reservations for out of season periods can be made at shorter notice.
