Come join EarthDiverse and the Asian Network for our Parenting Across Cultures workshop on Wednesday 6th September from 10:00am to 12:00pm at the EarthDiverse Centre, 401 Anglesea Street, Hamilton. This event is free and open to all!
What's This About?
Our focus group aims to bridge mainstream parenting in NZ with diverse migrant cultural perspectives. This workshop is exclusively for mothers, allowing us to delve into the unique challenges faced by migrant mothers and youth. In the future, we'll organize a separate focus group discussion for youth and follow up with three workshops to bridge the understanding between mothers and youth.
What's In It For You?

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?
A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.
Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.
